He also appeal to the two major political parties, All Progressive Party, APC and Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, in Nigeria political space to do the needful by presenting their candidates from Igbo extraction, so as to facilitate the possibility of becoming the Nigeria President in 2023.
“2019 was a remarkable year, full of challenges for ndigbo as a nation-state. Security of lives and properties became our major challenge in Nigeria, South Africa and lately Ghana.
“We wish to appeal to the two major political parties APC and PDP in Nigeria political space to do the needful by presenting their candidates from the Igbo extraction, so as to facilitate the possibility of the Igbo becoming the Nigeria President, come 2023. This will be in consonance with the principles of equity, natural justice, good conscience.
“We are merchants by nature and that takes us to many places home and abroad. You are advised to be at alert and place security as an important enabler in your business environment.
“2019 was an election year in Nigeria. Even after the elections, the political atmosphere has been on the edge. The issue of the 2023 presidential election has taken a centre stage. The Igbo nation lost out completely at the centre, as we are not adequately represented as one of the third major components of the Nigerian Project. The issue of national character has been jettisoned. This situation must change forthwith!
“All these factors, and more, above, combined to make 2019 a tough year business-wise for Ndi-Igbo. It is hoped that 2020 will oblige us with a better business climate. With the timely passage of the national budget and the new promise for better implementation”, He said.
