Former Minister of Labour and Employment, Dr. Chris Ngige has issued a strong warning to the All Progressives Congress (APC) governorship candidate in Anambra State, Prince Nicholas Ukachukwu.
Ngige in a statement by his Special Assistant on Media, Hyggy Obialo said:
“Our attention was been drawn to the online poster in circulation with the photograph of our principal, His Excellency, Sen. Or. Chris Nwabueze Ngige, MD, OON, CON, Onwa-na-etiliora, featuring together with the Anambra State APC Governorship candidate, Prince Nicholas Ukachukwu and his deputy, Sen. Uche Ekwunife.”
“We want to use this medium to inform the general public that neither the consent nor approval of our principal was sought and/or obtained, respectively, before the said publication was disseminated to the general public.”
“We, therefore, advise the perpetrators to respect the wishes of our principal, who has indicated in many fora that he is out of partisan politics for now.”
“We further wish to inform the general public, that H.E. Sen. (Dr) Chris Nwabueze Ngige is on sabbatical from active partisan politics for now as he is taking his well-deserved rest after 25 years of active partisan politics and public service.”
