BREAKING: Ken Nnamani Withdraws From APC Primary Election

A former Senate President, Ken Nnamani, has withdrawn from the race to emerge as the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC).

Ezenwoko’s Blog reports that Nnamani made his withdrawal from the race known while speaking with journalists in Abuja on Monday.

The former Senator said his decision to withdraw from contesting the APC presidential ticket was because he had not had the opportunity to market his profile and ideas to the delegates.

He, however, promised to continue to engage with the ruling party and its leadership to make sure that the ideas and values he cherish find a strong footing.

He said: “In the present circumstances, it does not make any sense for me to continue in the race as I have not had the opportunity to market my profile and ideas to the delegates of our party in a manner that allows for deliberation and introspection.

“Therefore, I discontinue my aspiration and wish the party a successful primary and unity of purpose so that we can win the 2023 general elections.

“I will continue to engage with the party and its leadership to make sure that the ideas and values that I cherish and propagate find a strong footing in the party administration and in public leadership after the election.”
