The Ohanaeze Youth Council (OYC) has asked former Vice President Atiku Abubakar to drop his presidential ambition to uphold the unity of the Nigerian nation.

The Igbo group warned that if the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, hands the former Vice President its 2023 presidential ticket, it would cause a total disintegration of Nigeria.

Speaking to newsmen in Owerri, Imo State capital, the National President of Ohanaeze Youth Council, Comrade Igboayaka O. Igboayaka, said the council frowns at what he described as “the undue desperation of Atiku Abubakar to pick the presidential ticket of Peoples Democratic Party, PDP.”

The Igbo youth group said, “If PDP denies a southeasterner Presidential ticket, the only thing over 50 million Igbo youths must ensure is to keep Nigeria one by massively voting APC presidential candidate from the southeast, and no PDP office/flag from ward level to state level will stand erect in the southeast. We’ll fight PDP like Yakubu Gowon did to keep Nigeria one.

According to the council, “Atiku Abubakar should go to the history line of PDP formation from G34 led by Dr Alex Ekwueme before it became a political party, to ascertain that the southeast has paid the ultimate sacrifice in PDP more than any other zone in Nigeria.”

Speaking further, the group reiterated that southeastern people had contributed to the formation, building, as well as sustaining PDP as the biggest party in Africa.

“Atiku Abubakar’s call to contest in PDP is a call to interrupt the Unity and Peace in Nigeria and such move will lead to National political disaster, anarchy and tribal crises that will sink Nigeria.

“If PDP denies a southeasterner Presidential ticket, the only thing over 50 million Igbo youths must ensure is to keep Nigeria one by massively voting APC Presidential candidate from Southeast, and no PDP office/flag from ward level to state level will stand erect in Southeast. We’ll fight PDP like Yakubu Gowon did to keep Nigeria one.

“PDP must avoid using Atiku Abubakar, Aminu Tambuwal and other selfish presidential Aspirants that are not from Southeast to disintegrate or cause Nigeria her national unity,” Igboayaka maintained.

“It’s derogatory that Atiku Abubakar boasted how he used Ben Obi and Peter Obi as running mates. Atiku Abubakar should know that if any Nigerian desires to see Nigeria as the ‘Giant of Africa’ as proposed by Dr Nnamdi Azikiwe (Zik of Africa), then it’s high time he dropped his presidential ambition and support a credible and competent presidential aspirant from Southeast to build the Nigeria of Zik vision,” he stated.

“Atiku Abubakar must awaken his human consciousness and realize that among the Six geo-political Zone in Nigeria, Southeast gave him the overwhelming highest vote, which led the present administration of President Mohammadu Buhari to nick-name Southeastern people 5%. Therefore, it is historical that Atiku Abubakar and PDP family is owing the southeastern people reciprocation gratitude in the 2023 presidential election.”

Interesting times ahead

Only time will tell

Is this a threat or a sort of sickness?

Pdp will give the ticket to athifku and nothing will happen.

When has becoming a president in a democratic set up becomes a matter of coercion?

Pdp should appreciate the southeast support they have been getting with a presidential ticket.
I will vote a credible southeast candidate for president whether PDP or APC because it is the right thing to do.

Na today?

Tinubu won't be president of Nigeria and nothing will happen

"Ọhaneze" whatever they call themselves should stop attaching Ndigbo to their fight.
Their presidential tribalism does not concern us.

It is impossible for Ibo to bury PDP because even if PDP present Atiku as the candidate, the Ibo will still give over 80% of the votes to PDP.

PDP leadership know this and all this noise from Ohaneze stops nothing. Infact if APC present an Ibo candidate and PDP present Atiku (Fulani), the Igbos will still vote Atiku coz that’s how bad their magnitude of blind loyalty to PDP is.

If I am Atiku, I will pick either a SW or SS vice presidential candidate coz his vote in the SE is already guaranteed.

Atifku is not a good option.
It's high time Igbo left this rubbish pdp.
God bless Apga.

Igbos who will prefer not to go to polls on election day. Elections are not wn by threats

Nothing go happen.
Talk is cheap

Ohaneze Ndi igbo and careless talks .. Which one be vote massively for Apc with Igbo candidate .. they’re not serious.

Just tell Atiku una need money.. he go drop. All this noise sef

Very unnecessary.

Ibo boy, nothing will happen when atiku gets the ticket. You can see that you're gradually losing out as I predicted. You ibos no sabi this politicking game at all. It's better you face your akube business full time. Blackmails and threats can't take you ibos anywhere.

Nigeria will burn if the great Igbos are denied presidency in 2023 i swear. Ndia amaro Na ka anyi si kwado kitaa aburu Ka anyi si kwado Na mbu.

I am a hyper realist by nature , even though nothing will make happier than seeing an Igbo president emerge in 2023 but the reality is that this is not possible, our best chance will be the VP seat and we will see how it goes from there

the undue desperation of Atiku Abubakar to pick the presidential ticket of Peoples Democratic Party Abeg who is more desperate between Atiku and SouthEast

Atiku as a citizen of the country is qualified in every ramification to contest the presidency.
This toothless-bulldog-organization should rather solicit for Igbos to throw their hat into the ring and contest.

“If PDP denies a southeasterner Presidential ticket, the only thing over 50 million Igbo youths must ensure is to keep Nigeria one by massively voting APC Presidential candidate from Southeast, and no PDP office/flag from ward level to state level will stand erect in Southeast. We’ll fight PDP like Yakubu Gowon did to keep Nigeria one.

That's IF the APC will ever field a South Easterner to fly its ticket...which will be incredible to say the least.

Audio 50million
Ibos and numbers
I stopped reading when I read where he said Igbos will vote ibo apc presidential candidate.

Ohanaeze should go rest, they have been talking too much lately.
Atiku is the best bet for PDP

Lol....a slave can't bury his master.

Ohaneze ndi oshi na ndi ama.

Is it not clear right now that APC has perfected plans to rig itself back into office unless you get a candidate with groundswell support both in the north and south to defeat APC's plan? So it is better to have an "Igbo candidate" and merely lose to the APC to continue their impunity in Nigeria? Instead of someone who is guaranteed to return PDP to power and help prevent chaos in Nigeria? Even if the person is from the northeast?

So Igbos will join Prof. Obiozor and vote APC abi? Instead of voting PDP that clearly see them as an important unit of the federal republic ?

The same people releasing this statement will still declare "ofe nsala day" on election day. The present crop of thoughtless people who claim to speak for igbos makes one shake his head.

The more they release these sort of puerile statements, the more some people especially from other tribes and regions, who otherwise wouldn't want Tinubu or Atiku, will begin to gravitate towards them.

Hmmm. Please ignore PDP and support Asiwaju Tinubu.

Igbo will always twerk for Atiku and PDP.

Unpatriotic pay per click rat. Nigeria needs a vibrant technocrat to set things right. This is not a time to be tribalistic..
