Prof. George Obiozor The President-General of Ohanaeze Ndigbo Worldwide, Prof George Obiozor, has broken his silence on the outcome of the primaries of the ruling All Peoples Congress and the main opposition party, Peoples Democratic Party, for the 2023 presidential election.
Recall that the South-East presidential aspirants in the two political parties lost in the primaries while some failed to record a vote despite the overwhelming agitation for the region to produce the next president based on equity, justice, and fairness, and in the spirit of a rotational presidency between the North and South.
While a former Lagos State Governor, Bola Tinubu, who hails from the South-West emerged as the presidential candidate of the APC, former Vice President, Atiku Abubakar, from the North-East, emerged as the PDP presidential candidate.
But Obiozor, in a statement titled, “What does Nigeria want from Ndigbo? كازنو ,” made available through the National Publicity Secretary of Ohanaeze Ndigbo, Dr Alex Ogbonnia, described the outcome of the presidential primaries of the two major parties as gross injustice against the Igbo beyond expectations. موقع 365 سبورت

Obiozor, who is convalescing in a Dubai hospital, said Nigeria, by deliberate injustice, had failed the Rotary Club International’s four-way test which centred on truth, fairness, goodwill, and benefit to all concerned.

He, however, thanked 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.
