Former governor of Anambra State, Peter Obi, has revealed that he would contest the 2023 presidential election if the Peoples Democratic Party zones its ticket to the South or throws it open for all interest aspirants to contest.
Obi made the remarks through a statement by Val Obienyem, his media aide.
The statement quoted the former governor as saying that he was capable of turning around the fortunes of the country but will wait on the decision of the PDP before he declared his intention.
The statement reads, “All the elections that I followed in the past, the party that I belong to today, the PDP made a pronunciation and took a stand.
