We are tired of recycled politicians, it’s time for female president – Uchegbu tells PDP, APC

 A presidential hopeful on the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Ada Kate Uchegbu has declared that Nigerians are tired of those whom she described as recycled politicians.

The journalist-turned politician noted that it was time for Nigeria to have a female president.

Uchegbu made these assertions via a statement made available on Thursday.

She maintained that decades of male-dominated leadership had left the country trapped in insecurity, hunger, unemployment and despair.

She then used the opportunity to appeal to the various political parties in the country to present female presidential candidates during the 2027 general elections.

Uchegbu said, “Decades of male-dominated leadership have left the country trapped in insecurity, hunger, unemployment, and despair.

“It is time for a nurturing and visionary leadership style that only a woman’s heart can deliver. Nigeria deserves a fresh deal for the country to become better.

“Nigeria deserves a fresh deal for the country to become better. African women are among capable leaders in the world. Nigeria‘s political culture will change forever if a woman emerges as the country’s president.

Nigeria is at a breaking point. We have recycled leaders and expected different results. It hasn’t worked. I am stepping in because we need a generational shift in both age and mindset.

“Anambra must vote for competence, not cash or political godfathers.

“This election is a chance to set the tone for credible governance nationwide.

INEC must guarantee transparency, protect voters from intimidation and choose leaders who can build, not those who only campaign”.
