Eze stated that he asked the Labour Party presidential candidate not to waste his money on the 2023 election because he would not win.
He said, “I warned Peter Obi to withdraw from this race but he would not listen. I told him plainly that I am not part of his plans. I told him to drop his ambition, and wait for next time.
“When he told me about his ambition, I asked him the states he thinks he can win in the west and in the north – he told me; but I was not convinced. I told him he cannot not win; so that he would not waste his time and money.”
Addressing Governor Charles Soludo of Anambra State, Eze said he is tipping the governor to become President of Igbo extraction.
