Minister of Labour, Chris Ngige, on Friday was coy on his choice of candidature between his party’s presidential candidate, Bola Tinubu and Peter Obi of the Labour Party.
Speaking on Channels Television’s Politics Today, Mr Ngige, a member of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), said he will make his choice at the ballot.
“I’m not active in politics for now because I am facing national assignment,” he said when asked his preferred candidate between the APC’s Tinubu and the Labour Party’s Peter Obi.

“Both of them are my friends. My choice will be in the ballot box. It is a secret ballot. I shouldn’t tell Nigerians what I would do secretly,” he added.
Quest Times understands that Ngige and Obi have a past history of political rivalry when Obi took over from the former as Anambra State Governor.
