Igbo socio-cultural group, Ohanaeze Ndigbo has disclosed why President Muhammadu Buhari needs to support an Igbo presidency.
In a statement by its National Publicity Secretary, Alex Chiedozie Ogbonna, Ohanaeze said the president’s support would solve the marginalisation and injustice debates in the South East.
Ogbonna added that the president’s action would reduce the secession agitation in the region and boost his image among the people.

He, however, identified poverty, insecurity and injustice as the major problems facing the county, calling on the federal government to address these challenges.
“First, he should ask himself a question on how he wants to be remembered when he leaves office; second, he should do to the South-East what Obasanjo did to the North-West when he said it was their turn to produce the president.
“He should also say it is the turn of the Igbo to produce the president of Nigeria and with it, there will be peace in Nigeria,” he said.
