Chief Ralph Uwazuruike, the leader of the Movement for the Actualisation of the Sovereign State of Biafra (MASSOB), has voiced his support for Governor Yahaya Bello of Kogi’s presidential ambition in 2023.
Uwazuruike, who led a group of South East youths in a solidarity march in support of Bello, said he does not believe in an Igbo president and that the election should be held open.
When the governor, who is running for president on the platform of the All Progressives Congress (APC), paid him a visit in Owerri, Imo, the MASSOB leader revealed his opinions.

Uwazuruike encouraged Nigerians to avoid zoning, claiming that it had no place in the Federal Republic of Nigeria’s constitution.
The agitator went on to state that his group would support Bello to become the next president of Nigeria because he had the leadership qualities to lead Nigeria effectively.
He said: “All Nigerians should rally round the youthful governor. We are supporting Bello for this and no one else. That he has the capacity to solve the problem of insecurity and a host of others facing the nation is not in doubt.
“This is a crucial time in the history of the country. We must give youths a chance, especially one that has demonstrated uncommon capacity, in the person of Yahaya Bello.”
