The President General of Ohanaeze Ndigbo Worldwide, Ambassador Professor George Obiozor has reacted to the presidential nominations by the mainstream political parties, namely the All Peoples Congress (APC) and the Peoples’ Democratic Party (PDP).
According to him: “Now, it is clear that the Nigerian national political elite have successfully orchestrated to deny the south east an opportunity to produce the president of Nigeria come 2023.
“By this machination, some Nigerian leaders have demonstrated gross historic injustice towards Ndigbo, beyond our expectations.
Obiozor who is convalescing in a Dubai hospital notes that our country, Nigeria, by their deliberate injustice has failed the Rotary Club International four way tests. Which are:
First-Of the things we think, say or do: Is it the TRUTH?
Second – Is it FAIR to all concerned?
Third – Will it build GOODWILL and BETTER FRIENDSHIPS?
Fourth – Will it be BENEFICIAL to all concerned?
“For Ndigbo, I urge us not to lament much but wait for the verdict of history.
“In the end, this political manipulation will end in a Pyrrhic victory for those who rejoice and celebrate injustice.
“I want to also use this opportunity to appreciate all those Nigerian statesmen and patriots across the country, who supported the idea for the South East to produce the president of Nigeria in 2023, based on Nigerian proven history of rotation of power between the north and the south as well as commitment to equity, justice and fairness”.
Obiozor asks a rhetorical question: What does Nigeria want from Ndigbo?
IPOB spend 7 years denying Nigeria, cursing Nigeria and President Buhari. Now, just May year 2022, through Peter Obi they have become Nigerians again and immediately want to be president of Zoo in year 2023. What a wisest people! Na so politics dey easy!!!.
