2023: 102-year-old woman declares to run for President

A centenarian, Mrs. Nonye Josephine Ezeanyaeche, has declared her intentions to vie for Nigeria’s presidency ahead of the 2023 general election.

Popularly called ‘Mama Africa’, the 102-year-old woman explained that she has good plans for Nigeria should she be voted in to succeed President Muhammadu Buhari in 2023.

Ezeanyaeche, who is also called ‘living legend’, hails from Aguata, Anambra State and is the founder of the ‘Voice for Senior Citizens of Nigeria’ group.

Speaking during a recent visit to the Management team of the Nigerian Television Authority (NTA), she expressed readiness to contest for the position if the younger generation of the country are not ready.

Although she hasn’t disclosed the party platform to pursue ambition, she, however, joins the long list of individuals who have so far declared interest to run for the exalted position.
