Former minister of information, Labaran Maku has declared his intention to contest the governorship seat of Nasarawa State in 2023 on the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
Gatekeepers News reports that Maku made the declaration when he led his supporters to inform the State Working Committee (SWC) of the PDP of his return to the party.
He apologised to party members for leaving them since 2015.
He said that he had been a committed member and had served in various capacities at the state and federal levels before he left following dissatisfaction with the outcome of the 2015 governorship primary of the party.
The former minister said though he could not justify his departure from the party, he asked for forgiveness from party members, adding that he had forgiven all that betrayed him in the past.
Mr Maku said he would contest the governorship seat and promised to accept the outcome of the party’s primary, adding that he would work with whoever picked the ticket to deliver the state to the party in 2023.
He said the state had suffered a lot from bad governance, poor performance by government officials and total neglect of the people in the last 12 years.
