Roman Catholic Priest, Rev
Fr Francis Agantem Eworo of the Ogoja Diocese in Cross Rivers state, has signified interest in
running for governor of the state in the 2015 general election.
At a media parley held recently, Rev.
Fr Eworo told newsmen that he intends
to contest on the platform of PDP
and if elected as Governor, would focus on youth development among others
Father Eworo who says he has been involved in the politics of the PDP since 1999, was ordained a priest in 1977 and has served
in various parishes of the Catholic Church in Ogoja, Ikom, Uruan,
Calabar, and Akwa Ibom State. Is it OK for a Catholic priest to want to
run for election?
