Jerry Gana, ex-minister of
information, has declared his intention to contest the 2019 presidential
election.
Gana picked up the expression of
interest form of the Social Democratic Party (SDP) at the national secretariat
of the party in Abuja, on Thursday.
He said with over 40 years of his
vast experience in politics, he has what it takes to salvage the country from
its “present state of collapse”.
Gana said the current leadership
of the government seems “unconcerned, incompetent and incapable of turning
around the drift”, adding that he is concerned at the real prospect of Nigeria
imploding unless the great party (SDP) comes to the rescue .
“Every patriotic Nigeria,
everyone with sense of compassion, and love for people will know that Nigeria
needs to be really rescued because the nation is going through a difficult
time,” he said.
“The unprecedented insecurity
across the land in which people are been killed in such horrible intensity and
inhuman ways in which this is done.
“Being a patriotic and committed
democrat who has carried a burden for the rapid, effective and even development
of the country for decades, I am deeply concerned at the very real prospect of
Nigeria imploding unless our great party comes to the rescue with a God
fearing, dynamic, untainted and credible leadership.”
