2023 presidency: Don’t contest, allow us – Igbo elder, Ezeife begs Tinubu
Former Anambra State Governor, Chukwuemeka Ezeife, has urged Bola Tinubu, the National Leader of the All Progressives Congress, APC, against contesting for the 2023 presidential election.
Ezeife said people of the Southeast are ready to go on their knees to beg other zones to allow them produce Nigeria’s next president.
The former governor spoke on Monday in Awka during the launch of Global Movement for President of Igbo extraction in 2023.
He also urged people like Bola Tinubu, National Leader of the All Progressives Congress, APC, should jettison their presidential ambition.
The former governor regretted that the southeast remained the only zone to produce a president since the return of democratic rule in Nigeria.
He appealed to other geopolital zones to support the clamour for a president from the southeast in 2023 for fairness, equity and justice.
“We are using this medium to call on people like Alhaji Bola Tinubu and others from the north nursing the presidential ambition to have a rethink,” Ezeife said.
