Talented comedian, Julius Agwu has abandoned his ambition to be the next governor of Rivers State come 2014.
The comedian reportedly had a meeting with his Ikwerre kinsmen yesterday which would not make the comedian pursue his gubernatorial ambition any longer, at least for now.
According to Julius Agwu’s manager, Prince Sunday Uwem, ‘There was a meeting yesterday between Julius Agwu and his kinsmen from Ikwere, and it was agreed that he should step down from the governorship race because the current Governor Rotimi Amaechi is his friend and they are both from the same area.
Speaking further, Uwem said: ‘They’ll want the position to rotate to another part of the state and Julius Agwu has decided to listen to his people and withdraw from contesting.’
This, however, doesn’t mean the end of the road for Julius Agwu’s budding political career as the comedian is said to have only withdrawn from the governorship race and has not ruled out contesting for any other office.
Earlier this month, sources in the comedian’s revealed that Governor Amaechi invited Julius to a meeting, urging him to step down based on the rotation quota of the state.
