The African Action Congress, AAC, governorship candidate for the November 8 election in Anambra State, Chioma Ifemeludike, says her decision to contest is not a transition but a continuation of her long-standing involvement in governance and politics.
Ifemeludike stated this on Friday during an appearance on Prime Time, a programme on Arise Television monitored by pressmen.
According to her, she has always been actively engaged in political and leadership spaces, noting that her background in political science and student union activism shaped her passion for public service.

“I won’t necessarily call my decision to run for the governor seat transitioning because I have always been in the corridors of governance and politics,” she said.
“This is not just because I studied political science but because I was also a student unionist. What made me become a student unionist was to speak for students who didn’t have a voice.”
She added that her aspiration is driven by a sense of responsibility to serve the people and the AAC’s positioning as a viable alternative for Anambra voters.
“I have always been that person who took the responsibility of others, and at this time in my life, that the AAC is positioning as the only alternative for the people, it became imperative that I step in to the position of making myself the number one person in Anambra State,” she said.
