Ohanaeze Ndigbo and some church leaders have fixed December 27 for street rallies to campaign for Igbo presidency in 2023. They also said they had concluded arrangements to write the President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari (retd), the leadership of the All Progressives Congress and the Peoples Democratic Party to notify them of the need to zone the 2023 presidency to the region. They said the rallies would hold in Abia, Anambra, Ebonyi, Enugu and Imo states simultaneously.

The Ohanaeze Ndigbo Chairman in the Diaspora, Dr Nwachukwu Anakwenze, disclosed these to journalists in Awka, the Anambra State capital. He said, “Those we are considering for the presidential seat from Igbo are present and past governors, senators and House of Representatives members from the zone who are performers. We envision a Nigeria where leadership is based on the ability to work hard, where fairness reigns with a sense of direction and accountability to the various groups and for the common good of the country.

“It’s now the turn of the South-East to provide good leadership for the good of all Nigerians so as to move Nigeria in a positive direction.” Anakwenze noted that the Igbo would need the support of other regions to produce the next president. “We believe in alignment. We cannot get the presidency by ourselves, even if all the Igbo vote. We are already working with people from other zones and we are in talks with them already,” he said.

In a related manner, the President General of Ohanaeze Ndigbo, Chief Nnia Nwodo, will lead a delegation of the pro-Biafra group, Movement for the Sovereign State of Biafra, and other youth groups to meet with Buhari regarding the Igbo presidency in 2023. MASSOB leader, Mr Uchenna Madu, disclosed this on Friday at the Government House, Enugu, after a joint meeting with the governors of the region, leaders of thought, ministers and National Assembly members as well as traditional and religious leaders from the region.

Madu, who read a 10-point demand of the Igbo youths, had earlier demanded that the Ndigbo should be allowed to produce a president in 2023. “We demand that the South-East be given the opportunity to produce the president of Nigeria in 2023,” he said.

2023: IGBOS' INTEREST SUPERSEDES PARTY DIFFERENCES — OKOROCHA
Meanwhile, former Governor of Imo State, Senator Rochas Okoroch, says South-East political leaders have resolved to shelve their party differences to work for the interest of the region ahead of the 2023 general elections. Okorocha, who spoke on the sidelines of South-East leaders meeting held in Enugu on Thursday night, disclosed that Igbo leaders had also taken a decision to properly mentor and empower the youths in readiness to take over from them.

The ex-governor, who is representing Orlu Senatorial District of Imo State in the Senate, said the #EndSARS protests against police brutality which was later hijacked by those with a different motive, was a wake-up call for the South-East and Nigerian leaders to rise to their responsibilities towards the people and the youths in particular.

I Seconded That....Igbo Presidency is Long Overdue.....Let them Rule too na

Okay...

Why will Ndigbo have to go to this extent to acquire a presidential position, if not for the evident Northern unquestionable hegemony?

Apart from the brunt of Quota system and Zoning, tribalism has been the strength the North has over the whole South.

Biafra...out of the window
Time for the youth to take over....inside a pit

I expected to see Arrewa’s handle’s quoting and requoting himself! Or is he too preoccupied with IPOB matter that he forgot to come bash the Igbo Presidential ambitions?

Arrewa food is ready. And please bring the following handles along. I heard your fellow northerners in BMC Kaduna have taken over the remaining BOT.

2. Ekinematics
3. JuliusMalema
4. Osagyefo

Très bon développement!

It's never about having a share of the power....If you elect a person that will come in to listen to the biddings of the north....Then, all of this will be in vain.....


In as much as I support Igbo presidency...I support total restructuring of this country.....where governors will be 100%the leader of their states.....and can be easily impeach...

This way, there'll be competition amongst governors....



But right now ...All the roads leads to Aso rock, Abuja.

Is there right to hold the rally. Just as is the right of other southerners to compete for the presidency in 2023.

Restructuring is the way forward. But an Igbo man should rule as well to send a sense of belonging among the people of the east.

For unity and fairness, an Igbo presidency is necessary. For effective growth and prosperity, restructuring is a must.

stop associating me with any moniker on Nairaland.

As for igbo presidency I have never for once speak against igbos contesting for presidency.

My position is clear...

The north will never vote an igbo man.

It's not hatred... But Reciprocation.

Na so, it’s still someone among them that will sell out. And why are they trying to romance with APC, do they think those fulani cabals will allow them?

Anyway, the youth are waking up to all una nonsense

in as much as North dominated the electoral value of Nigeria electoral system, Igbo presidency remains a fiction and any party that fill them for presidency or vice presidency will waste his time



Igbo must redress their political settings and differences with North, there must be political reconciliation between southeast and North before Igbo presidency could be realistic


Northerners don't just have political relationship with southwest for no reason, southwest believe in alignment, political reshuffle, mind game(that Igbo called betrayer) and Southwest leaders have built their trust with north for decades


even though I don't support this unfavorable and unproductive one Nigeria but in as much as we are still together, Igbo must redress their political differences with North and other part of the country. imagine south south that's their best political ally are trying to feel uncomfortable with their social and political relationship

Two years ago they said Igbo doesn't had interest to become president other than succession. What happen now?

This is how politics is done not by begging or insulting others.

Ohanaeze is really trying to see that an Igbo man become president come 2023.

Shamelessness.
They are allegedly killing their brethrens in Oyigbo and all that matter to them at the moment is their Presidency.
None of them has come out to speak against the alleged killings of Igbos that some Nairalanders have been wailing about.
Maybe because the elites understand the fact that IPOB members are the ones who started the trouble and the cry of genocide on Igbos by few Nairalanders is just a hoax, maybe it is known that it is IPOB miscreants that are the trouble makers.

It could also be that they don't care about their people it is Tinubu and Afonja that is their problem.


Shameless hypocrites

I’m still to know where the votes will come from

From the “Sw Fulani slaves, yeroba Muslims and ass lickers”?

From “Northern useless cows and abokis Shine my shoes”

In 2023/23, igbos will know choices of words and decisions have consequences

GOD WON'T APPROVE IGBO PRESIDENCY UNTIL NIGERIA HAS BEEN PROPERLY RESTRUCTURED.

Biafra today, gathering for Igbo Presidency on Sunday morning.

They should better start asking that from PDP now before Atiku and Wike take it again.
