Ex-Speaker of Imo State House of Assembly, Ike Ibe, said that the election of an Igbo president by 2023 would serve as the best for Nigeria.
Ibe said this on Wednesday at a conference organised by South East 2023 Presidential Mandate in Enugu.
Ibe who was also governorship aspirant on the platform of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) during the 2019 general elections, added that allowing the South East to produce President Muhammadu Buhari’s successor would advance the unity.
He noted that it would as well advance the development, economic growth, stability progress in the country.

He argued that since independence, the Igbo nation had continued to struggle for political identity and relevance, stating that: “Until South Eastern leaders come together and genuinely work for a common goal, the quest for a Nigerian president of Igbo extraction will once again elude them in 2023.”
The lawyer regretted that “this region has suffered marginalisation in every way possible. We have for long been subjected to all kinds of unpardonable wrongs in a nation which our heroes past fought for its liberation from colonialism.”
