Ahead of the 2023 general elections, the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) has said it won’t support a Nigerian President of Igbo extraction.

IPOB, in a statement by its Media and Publicity Secretary, Emma Powerful, alleged that all the people being prepared for the position are stooges that will be used against the interest of Ndigbo, Biafrans and the group.

Powerful added that the people at the forefront of the agitation were people who openly worked against the late Dr Alex Ekwueme at the Jos Peoples Democratic Party convention for the candidature of the President of Nigeria under the PDP in 1999.

He said what such people did to the late Ekwueme was similarly done by their likes to Peter Obi, in 2019 when he contested with Alhaji Abubakar Atiku as his running mate, alleging that they conspired and did not support or campaign for Obi despite being in the same political party, PDP, with him.

The statement read, “We cannot support any person that will kill us; that will mean the end of Biafra emancipation as we know. It is still fresh in our minds what transpired at Jos PDP convention when the the late Dr Alex Ekwueme contested for the candidature of the President of Nigeria under the PDP in 1999.

“Then the likes of Jim Nwobodo, Orji Uzo Kalu and virtually every other Igbo delegate at that convention voted against him. These Igbo men sabotaged Igbo presidency then, what has changed since 1999 that will make them come out now to shamefully clamour for the same Igbo presidency they publicly rejected in 1999?

“Similarly, when Mr Peter Obi in 2019 was contesting as running mate to Alhaji Abubakar Atiku, Governor Dave Umahi and his co-travellers in conspiratory business did not support or campaign for him despite being in the same political party - PDP.

“We are surprised that these people shouting President of Igbo extraction today but sabotaged their own people yesterday think we have forgotten; they also think others will support them when it is their turn.

“Besides, if these myopic and self-centred fellows think producing the President of Nigeria will solve the problem of Ndigbo: when Goodluck Jonathan, an Ijaw man from South-South was Nigeria’s President for six years, what did he do for the East in general and Ijaw people in particular?

“The same northern oligarchy that did not allow him to operate freely will still not allow any stooge they may eventually appoint from Igboland to succeed. So, it makes no sense clamouring for what won’t proffer any solution to our problems.

“The few major roads built in South-East and South-South were done, not by an Igbo man, yet none of these traitors masquerading as Igbo leaders today has been able to compel their slave masters to rehabilitate them. Most of these self-acclaimed Igbo and Old Eastern region leaders are caliphate bred traitors and we cannot trust them.”

Igbos are saboteurs.

Lol.....What do they really want??

Restructuring?
President?
Biafra?

Because if na Biafra, E no possible, We die here oh!!

Good job guys.

Just declare no vote across Ibo land like you declared towards the 2019 elections and everywhere will be soft.

God bless Nnnamdi Kanu!

If you like support or don't support, nobody will vote for eebow

I concur.

No leflendum no erection!

... Confused lots

From their preferred news personality " Igbos sabotage themselves in politics"

“The same northern oligarchy that did not allow him to operate freely will still not allow any stooge they may eventually appoint from Igboland to succeed. So, it makes no sense clamouring for what won’t proffer any solution to our problems.

The bolded is what I keep on hammering on some blind igbos here on this forum. We keep on shouting presidency but we are quick to forget that the presidency would be very very very useless as long as the seat is being controlled by the cabals. Nndigbo can't you see? An Igbo president cannot do anything without the approval of the cabals. His presence there is as good as his absence.They have positioned themselves on nigerian politics when our own politicians were stupidity sleeping. I laugh at those who chant Igbo presidency.

What then will I call those foolish ones who believe that Nigeria will be better one day? You guys are very foolish. Nigeria will remain the way it is forever. Those cabals have vowed never to see this country prosper and they are ready to milk it dry. Completely dry. I really pity those igbos who still believe in Nigeria and igbo presidency. You will wait forever. It pains me so much to see your foolishness. The worst of all is that these nndigbo are being applauded by these cabals and are seen as patriotic Nigerians or elder statesmen but the people who see the truth and say it are called illiterates. Continue in your deception.

Nndigbo leave this rotten country and fight for a better one. And make sure you don't make the mistakes you made in Nigeria.

IPOB Ask Earnestly For Tinubu!
Can you people now see Tinubu is the one using Nnamdi Cownu?

They hate themselves with passion before so this is not news

Dave Umahi was so shamelessly bold in his betrayal of Peter Obi, Peter Obi should launch his campaign 2023 presidency. Those shouting Tinubu should realise that in a free and fair election, most yorubas would not vote for Tinubu or his stooge Osinbajo.

So in M.I, we should count SE out of 2023 presidential race?

God bless you real good dear.

IPOB should concentrate on the actualization of Biafra and leave presidential election of the Zoo.




2023: No Referendum, No election in Biafraland

Truthfully,what Nigeria needs is a total revamping of it's structure.No president can achieve much with the current state Nigeria is in. We either change peacefully or violently but change, Nigeria must

Tinubu was a small boy in 1999. He didn't have the influence to decide a Presidential candidate in 1999 like OUK & co.

what happened to OUK and Co? They are now the small boys that answer yessir to Tinubu. You need to talk about how your fellow Igbo were the one sabotaged your efforts not Yoruba

OUK is gearing up for 2023 presidency while Tinubu is still fighting with Afenifere.

Tinubu was Abacha's errand boy to kill your beloved MKO

Come back when you've recovered from the blow I just gave you

This should settle the Igbo presidential dream once and for all, So either South West and South South will produce the next president.
