Observers will lightly see the pair as Tonto plus Tonto based on the coincidence of their being namesake.
The actress announced her nomination on Instagram on Friday, while sharing their government’s plans if elected into office during next year’s election.
She enthused, “I thank Mr. Tonte Ibraye, the Governorship candidate of the African Democratic Congress Rivers State for nominating me as his running mate.”
Dikeh listed their manifesto to include, “investing massively in social protection, creating a social value system for young people, increased women inclusion in our governance system.
