Speaking to the press at the APGA Headquarters in Abuja, ANIAGOH, who is the Convener of APGA Digi-Family disclosed that he has picked the expression of interest and nomination forms that will enable him vie for the ticket of the fastest growing political party in Africa, APGA as he seeks to contest for the State House of Assembly election in 2023.
Engr. Aniagoh said he decided to formalise his ambition after doing the three most important starters for any true and aspiring leader.
“First, I planned out how life challenges deeply guided my life into preparing self for a continuous service to the people; “Second, I took all honourable paths to build myself for a day like this. I consciously readied myself to serve my people;
“Third, for the past couple of months, I have traveled the length and breadth of our constituency consulting widely with my people, men and women, young and old, our party stakeholders and elders as well as critical groups who have all consented to my aspiration to serve as their representative.
“So, I have today picked these forms with full blessing and assurances of my people and I am confident that we will win, both the primary election and in the general election for the progress of our Constituency.”
On why he is contesting, Aniagoh said, “I’m in this race to represent the good people of Abagana, Abba and Nimo (that’s Njikoka II State Constituency historically known as Umuowelle) because I’ve taken my time, talent and treasure to prepare myself to stand out in 10 attributes:
“Qualification/Quality, Capacity, Experience, Community Service, Human Capital Development, Youth Oriented, Readiness, Entrepreneurship, Accessibility and Sacrifice & Contributions to our great party, APGA.
