Ohanaeze Ndigbo has warned politicians from the North against retaining power beyond 2023.
In a statement signed by its Secretary-General, Mazi Okechukwu Isiguzoro, Ohanaeze Ndigbo told them to stop working against the gentleman pact of the rotational presidency between the North and South in 2023 as it will be disastrous consequences if they achieve their plans by 2023.
The Igbo socio-cultural organization went on to advise the north to voluntarily concede power to the south for the interest of peace and stability, “except if they have decided to set the nation ablaze and sink it.”
It also noted that Igbos have been pushed out of Nigeria based on the fact that owners of Nigeria craftily designed policies and procedures to enslave the people of the southeast politically and economically.
It added that only the 2023 Igbo Presidency will assuage the perceptions that Igbo are still part of Nigeria.
The group went on to blast Atiku, saying
“Atiku shouldn’t have sent his foot-soldiers to come up with tales by moonlight, as it is arrogant, absurd and disrespectful to come to the southeast and look at us in our faces and vomit fallacies that north’s tenure has not expired.
“We wish to categorically state that it is Igbo’s turn to succeed President Buhari in 2023 and Atiku should reciprocate the support Igbos gave him in 2019 and support one of his most trusted Igbo allies for 2023.
“Endeavors to bring another Northerner as President in 2023 will be a disaster and it will sink Nigeria, many Southern ethnic groups will join Igbo to walk away from Nigeria as ethnic domineering and intimidation will end up the union.
“Atiku had refused to learn from history, as he’s the best President Nigeria will never have, as age and competence is the new watchword and order, to determine who will be President in 2023, and now age is not on the side of Atiku, he should end the ill-fated journey to Aso Rock and support Ndigbo.”
