Reverend Father wants To Be governor of Cross Rivers State

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?
