Presidency: Igbo May Say Goodbye To Nigeria In 2023 – Ezeife

Former Governor of old Anambra State Dr Chukwuemeka Ezeife has told Nigerians to route for Nigeria’s president of Igbo extraction which he said would guarantee Igbo continued stay in the country the Igbo have all laboured for.

Dr Ezeife made this known in a letter he wrote to Nigerians, personally signed by him and delivered to Daily Independent South East zone, arguing that other geo-political zones across Nigeria have held the position of office the President except the South East zone.

“The final push-out will come (but God forbid) when, after we have done all that is expected of us to produce the next President: we get quite united, we lobby and beg the North west, we lobby and beg the North East, the North Central, Southwest and Southsouth, we lobby and beg most groups in Nigeria yet, because we are Igbo, we do not get our person as the next President of Nigeria after Buhari.

We must take it that the rest of Nigeria have rejected our citizenship of Nigeria. Of course, as our people say, one rejected does not reject oneself. The consequence is obvious. And we are the people who, having voted with our feet for one Nigeria, give the country the semblance of a nation, by being everywhere in Nigeria.

“Furthermore, by applying our dictum that ‘ebe onye bi, ka ona awachi (where a person lives, there he mends/builds/develops) we have vastly developed every state in Nigeria – dominating the development of the capital cities. It is also clear to everybody that we are the only zone that has not produced an elected Chief Executive Officer of Nigeria”.
