Ohuabunwa also used the opportunity presented by the media houses and town hall meetings in the UK to reinforce his earlier announcement at a World Press Conference on November 8, 2021 at International Conference Centre, Abuja on his aspiration to seek in 2023 the President of Nigeria on the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) platform.
“His plans to mobilise like-minded citizens to install enlightened, visionary, and committed leadership in Nigeria that will motivate the country to optimise its human and material resources to attain global competitiveness in a nation where justice, equity, and fair play reign supreme, resulting in happy and contented citizens, was well received and won endorsement and support across the political and business class in the United Kingdom,” Onwumere said.
