I am indeed overwhelmed by the outpour of solidarity and encouragement by the leadership of the Senate and every member of the hallowed chamber.
Together with the members of my campaign team, we worked extremely hard to clinch the ticket of our great party during the keenly contested party primary last weekend.
Even though we did not achieve our set goal, the financial and moral support we received from my colleagues in the hallowed chamber enabled us to make a bold statement in the governorship contest.
The impact we made in the election shows that we are indeed very close to creating a society where women can seek to occupy any office in Nigeria without facing any form of gender discrimination.
I make bold to say that I may not have won the nomination, but it is a matter of time. We shall get there by God’s grace.
– Senator Uche Ekwunife IYOM
