The Young Progressive Party (YPP)’s Senator-elect, Mr Ifeanyi Ubah has revealed that he is in support of Sen. Ahmad Lawan’s Senate presidential bid but it is not for any political gain.
Ubah, set to represent Anambra South Senatorial District in the 9th Senate, disclosed this as he spoke with the newsmen briefly after his party’s stakeholders’ meeting in Abuja.
He noted that reports saying he is supporting Ahmad Lawan but there are no strings attached.
His words, ”From day one, I have always have my position.
I have consulted with my party, we looked at his pedigree.
”He was the Senate leader in the 8th Senate and politics is about risk.
”We looked at his resume and we found out that he is the right person to support.
”Even if he never makes it, let us assume but that we don’t pray for, I will still work with him.
”I am the only YPP senator-elect. So I need to form alliance in the Senate and that is what politics is all about,”
”We want to have a rancour- free legislature in the ninth Senate. And that is why YPP has a position on whom we are supporting.
”The person who will at least give us that value we are seeking for.
”My words to Nigerians out there is that they should watch the performance of the YPP in the ninth Senate.”
