UK based counsel to Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Barr. Aloy Ejimakor, has called on politicians in the Southeast to jettison their ambition to run for political offices in the 2023 general elections for their own good.
Ejimakor, made this known in a tweet on his verified Twitter handle on Thursday, calling on citizens of the geopolitical zone to focus on restoring peace in the region and not chasing an illusory Presidency.
He pointed out that that if the security situation fails to gain appropriate attention from the leaders, there would be nobody to vote during the elections.
Ejimakor stated this while reacting to alleged unlawful activities of law enforcement agencies in some parts of the region.
He said said, ‘Dear #Ndigbo, especially the politicians: Why are you talking about the 2023 Elections & not the rising violence & injustice in Southeast?
‘Plus the militarization of the South East? Who will vote for you? The thousands that are either in jail or dead? #MNK’.
Meanwhile, Africa Daily News, New York reports that the South East geopolitical zone has remained largely insecure over the last one year following the re-arrest of the secession leader who is presently defending himself against the charges labeled against him by the Federal Government.
In a related development, a former Governor of Anambra State and Vice Presidential candidate of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) in the last general elections, Mr Peter Obi has declared his intention to contest the 2023 presidential election on the platform of the party.
Africa Daily News, New York reports that Obi made the declaration during a brief meeting with Anambra State traditional rulers held inside Government House, Awka, Anambra State.
Speaking at the meeting, Obi pointed out that his desire to repair Nigeria and bring it back to economic progress was strong and that he would give the job his best if given the mandate to serve.
He went on to promise Nigerians that he would unify the country, restore security and ensure economic growth.
