David Ombugadu, the 2023 governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Nasarawa State, has attributed the calls by various groups in the party for him to contest its national chairmanship position to his good showing in previous gubernatorial contests in the state.
Ombugadu said this in a press statement in Abuja on Saturday.
He said the impacts he made during the governorship contests of Nasarawa State in 2019 and 2023 remain very relevant and appreciated by party members.
He noted that well-meaning members of the party have continued to call on him to contest the national chairmanship position.
“I feel humbled that much of these calls emphasize our antecedents, especially with keen references to our creativity, innovation, the populist enthusiasm that was aroused as well as the dividends of democracy that our mandate yielded all over Nasarawa State,” Ombugadu.
He emphasized that the call for him to be given such responsibility was in line with the constitution of the party, adding that he had a lot to offer if given such a responsibility.
