Former Abia State Governor, Senator Theodore Orji has debunked claims that he is nursing a presidential ambition come 2023.
Orji, who is also the senator representing Abia Central senatorial district, insisted that there was no going back on his decision to quit partisan politics in 2023.
He disclosed this in a Saturday statement signed by his Chief Liasion Officer, Ifeanyi Umere.
According to him, some posters campaigning for his 2023 presidency were nothing more than the desperate act of mischief makers.
He reiterated that he has no presidential ambition.
The ex-governor said, “Our attention has been drawn to some posters adorning some streets in Umuahia and Aba purporting that Senator TA Orji is running for President come 2023.
“This is to let the public know that senator TA Orji is not running for any political position in 2023 as he has last year declared that he is quitting politics in 2023.
“Those behind this act are those who are not happy with the towering status of the former Abia Governor in national politics.
“Senator TA Orji is using this opportunity to assure his constituents that he will not be distracted by these latest antics of these political Lilliputians, as he will remain focused in delivering the dividends of democracy to the zone.”
