She announced her withdrawal in a letter addressed to the party’s Acting National Chairperson and made available to journalists on Friday.
In the letter, she requested that her name be withdrawn from all records, processes and considerations relating to the Anambra Central Senatorial District senatorial candidature.
She wrote, “I hereby formally notify the National Working Committee and the leadership of the African Action Congress of my decision to withdraw my interest and aspiration to contest for the office of Senator representing Anambra Central Senatorial District under the platform of our great party in the 2027 General Elections.
