The Minister of Labour and Employment, His Excellency, Senator Chris Ngige, has said he will vote in secret for his choice between the presidential candidate of All Progressives Congress, (APC), Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu and his Labour Party (LP) counterpart, His Excellency, Peter Obi in the February 2023 presidential election.
Ngige made this declaration while speaking on Channels Television’s programme, Politic Today, on Friday.
The former Governor of Anambra State and Senator of the Federal Republic of Nigeria admitted that both men are his friends, but his vote will be decided in the secret ballot.
Asked if it would be a difficult choice to vote Tinubu, with the people from the South-East clamouring to produce Nigeria’s next president, Ngige replied: “I’ve told you I am not active in politics. I am facing a national assignment for now. Why are you asking me difficult questions? Both of them are my friends.”
According to Ngige who is one of the APC leaders in Anambra State, his choice will be in the ballot box, even as he emphased that on the election day, he will make his choice.
