Tinubu Should Forget 2023 – Ohanaeze Ndigbo

Apex Igbo socio-cultural group, Ohanaeze Ndigbo has called on National Leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Tinubu not to run for the 2023 presidency as being touted in some quarters.

Recall that Senate President Bukola Saraki had last year accused Tinubu of backing President Muhammadu Buhari for second term despite ill-treatment from the administration in order to claim the 2023 presidential ticket of the APC for the South West.

“He (Tinubu) said that he would rather support a Buhari on the hospital stretcher’ to get a second term because in 2023, power will shift to the South-West,” Saraki said.

Aviation Minister, Chief Femi Fani-Kayode said last week that Tinubu was aspiring to be president in 2023.

“I am not in Bola Tinubu’s party but I commend him for having the courage to aspire to be President in 2023.

“How many southern politicians from either APC or PDP have had the guts to do that? If nothing else he has challenged the myth that the north owns Nigeria,” Fani-Kayode said.

But Ohanaeze said that Tinubu should not run for the presidency for the sake of equity and fairness although he is constitutionally empowered to do so.

Deputy Spokesperson, Chuks Ibegbu stated this in an interview with Daily Post.

He said, “Every Nigerian has the right to contest for any position but we are talking about morality now, Tinubu has the right, I Chuks Ibegbu has the right to be president of this country but we are talking about morality, justice, fairness and equity.

“Tinubu has the right to come out to be president but by right, equity and fairness he should not come out, he has no reason to come out morally.

“In the South West, many are not comfortable with him so he should not come out.”
