Ohanaeze Ndigbo, the apex Igbo socio-cultural body, on Sunday said Nigeria would continue to wallow in “abject socio-political, economic and developmental blindness until an Igbo man becomes the President.”

It said anything done in Nigeria without the active cooperation and participation of the lgbo would always crumble.

The spokesman for the Ohanaeze Ndigbo, Uche Achi-Okpaga, said this in an interview with one of our correspondents while reacting to a statement by Osinbajo that the South-West would produce the President in 2023 after President Buhari.


In buttressing his point, Achi-Okpaga listed former public office holders from the South-East who made positive impacts while serving the country.

He said, “I do not expect Prof. Osinbajo to say a different thing. The 2023 Yoruba Presidency is a plot presumably well hatched and efforts are being exerted to win it successfully as dramatised in the public pronouncements earlier by Fashola and now the bleeding utterances of Osinbajo.

“However, l am dumbfounded that these are men that believe in the existence of God but, perhaps unwittingly, do not believe in the God factor.[

The Igbo are the descendants of King David, the man after God’s heart. Anything you do in Nigeria without the active cooperation and participation of the lgbo would always crumble as exemplified in the present administration of PMB. The Igbo are to Nigeria what Israel is to the world today.

“Take my word today, until an Igbo man leads, Nigeria will continue to wallow in abject socio-political, economic and developmental blindness. The late Prof Dora Akunyili was brought in and she did justice to NAFDAC’s perennial, protracted and seemingly intractable impasse.

“Prof. (Chukwuma) Soludo was brought in and he brought sanity into the banking system. Today, Nigerians can deposit their money and go to sleep with their eyes closed.

“Dr Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala was brought in and she spearheaded debt relief for Nigeria (already dismantled by the present administration.)

“You can attest to how Prof. (Onyebuchi) Chukwu, as Minister of Health, clinically dealt with the Ebola virus under Goodluck Jonathan.

“The list is endless. Simply put, the Igbo will lead Nigeria when the Lord decrees it, all clandestine plots notwithstanding.

It's the usual empty and shallow chest beating.


Ibo people are the governors of several states in Nigeria and we are yet to see them excel in governance or turn their states into Dubai of Africa, in fact, their states are the poorest in Nigeria, they are so unproductive that generation after generation must leave that region for a better life personal survival elsewhere in Nigeria.

Just the usual silly talk with zero substance and reference point.

BafanaBafana:
Is anyone stopping an igbo man from being president?
If an igbo man wants to be president, he should come out and contest. If Nigerians like you, they will vote for you. Simple

basilo101:
FG siezed power of states to explore resources and bring a sharing formula that allocate peanuts to the east. Which magic do you expect from the governors? They are doing great in the face of injustice
