«Though I have quite a number of reasons not to contest the up and coming election, I want to draw the attention of our great party APC in Niger state to the disconnect between the governance (sic) in the state and the membership of the National Assembly, the state assembly and
other key stakeholders because there is an absence of synergy,» he wrote.
«I intend to live in Gracie Mansion not
because it's an upgrade from my current apartment (unlike this Mayor's), but
because it will maximize my efficiency to hold late night and early morning meetings with staff, business leaders, community leaders, Council members and
other key stakeholders in our city's future,» he said in a statement.
