No Igbo man can win 2023 administration : Orji Kalu discounts Peter Obi

Previous Legislative leader of Abia State, Orji Uzor Kalu on Tuesday said no Igbo man can win the administration in 2023, apparently discounting Dr. Peter Obi’s possibilities.

Obi, Labour Party’s Official up-and-comer is trying to become president in 2023, with an immense social media followership base.

He has no single construction to drive his aspiration, yet he accepts that individuals are his design.

In any case, Kalu, Boss Whip of the Senate while preparation newsmen at the Public Gathering complex on Tuesday said the administration was not a territorial issue, saying he asked then that the ideological groups to zone the administration toward the South East.

“At the point when they didn’t do that, and since administration is definitely not a provincial issue, I needed to pull out. I generally approve of Igbo man being president. However, we need to do it with different Nigerians.

“On the off chance that we don’t do it with different Nigerians, it won’t work, regardless of how famous you are. It’s leader of Nigeria, not leader of Igboland,” he said.

Kalu said he is an Igbo man deeply and furthermore a Nigerian profoundly, yet said if anybody from the Southeast could have been selected for administration, he would have been the one.

“Thus, it’s a party business. I have no feelings of spite against anyone who is running. Along these lines, it isn’t private. It is political and party. This thing is about party winning races.

“I have decided to be in APC. For what reason will I vote against Tinubu? It’s franticness, and I won’t make it happen. Races come partisan principal, not along ancestral line,” he expressed.

He asked the Igbo nation to sit tight for some other time and see whether Nigerians would consent to zone the administration to the Igboland.

“Be that as it may, for the present, our official up-and-comer is Bola Ahmed Tinubu. Tinubu is an essential chief, he will make his administration gainful to the Igbo. The Igbo will be the greatest recipients of Tinubu’s administration,” he said.
