After much speculation and uncertainty regarding New Democracy’s candidates in the upcoming elections, MP Yannis Ioannidis has formally announced in a written statement that he will run for the position of Regional Governor in Central Macedonia.
In his written statement, the former basketball coach-turned-politician explained that his intention is to bring about an improvement in the quality of life and update the infrastructures in Central Macedonia.
This development means that in the upcoming local government elections Mr. Ioannidis will run against another New Democracy member vying for the same position – Apostolos Tzitzikostas, who announced his candidacy yesterday.
New Democracy has not yet officially nominated any of the two candidates.
