Nigeria Needs Igbo President – Akwa Ibom Senator
By Emmanuel Adigwe
Chris Ekpenyong, a Senator representing Akwa Ibom Northwest, has called for an Igbo to be president in 2023.
Ekpeyong stated that Igbo presidency would help deepen national unity and give the Igbo a sense of belonging in the country.
Speaking in Uyo, the state capital, Ekpenyong stated that all zones of the country should get an opportunity to produce Nigeria’s president.
Ekpenyong disclosed that the Southeast should be allowed to produce Nigeria’s president like other regions of the country.
He said: “My prayer is that we should allow an Igbo man to become the next president of Nigeria.
“If the North and the South West have produced a president, why can’t the Southeast be allowed to become president of Nigeria?
“Igbo presidency is the path that will lead to deepening our national unity. It will assuage the feeling of disillusionment among the Igbo. It will also give them a sense of belonging. No section has the monopoly of capacity to lead Nigeria.”
