The Ohanaeze Ndigbo has appealed to its counterpart from the north, Arewa Youths Consultative Forum, to support the South East to produce the next president in 2023 for the interest of justice and equity.
The Secretary-General of Ohanaeze and leader of the Nigerian President of Igbo Extraction in 2023, OKECHUKWU ISIGUZORO, made the appeal yesterday when he led a delegation of Igbos on a courtesy visit to the President of Arewa Youths Consultative Forum, YERIMA SHETTIMA in Kaduna State.

SHETTIMA, in his response described the visit as a welcome development but condemned the violent approach which the Proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra IPOB adopted to call for secession.

He, however, rejected the zoning of the presidency to a particular region, pointing out that the contest should be thrown open for only the competent candidate to emerge.

ISIGUZORO earlier said that OHANAEZE NDIGBO worldwide has mapped out resources to support any of the presidential candidates of Igbo extraction from the two major political parties, adding that Nigerians should have no doubt or fear to trust an Igbo man with power.
