Factional Ohanaeze Ndigbo, yesterday, urged Nigerians to vote for competence and capacity in this year’s general elections, saying that voting against Atiku is voting against continuation of the Northern presidency beyond 2023.
In a New Year statement, in Abakaliki, Ebonyi State capital, factional Secretary General of the apex Igbo socio-cultural group, Okechukwu Isiguzoro, noted that the North has realised that its political leaders are hypocritical to ending the banditry and terrorism in the region, insisting that it’s only a Southern president that can end insecurity in the North, not the PDP presidential candidate.
He also pleaded with the unknown gunmen to end hostilities in the region. He added that the introduction of violent agitation and the killing spree of killer herdsmen are twin lapses that Igbo must end through self-support.
