Bello & Uwazuruike. |
The leader of the Movement for the Actualization of Sovereign State of Biafra (MASSOB), Chief Ralph Uwazuruike on Saturday, led some South East youths in a solidarity march in Owerri, the Imo State capital in support of the 2023 presidential bid of the Governor of Kogi State, Yahaya Bello.
Uwazuruike who also said he does
not believe in the clamour for a president of the Igbo extraction, said the
contest should be thrown open to all and sundry, even as the stated this when
the Governor of Kogi State, Yahaya Bello, a presidential aspirant on the
platform of the All Progressives Congress(APC), paid him a courtesy
call in his home in Owerri, Imo State.
The youths, who started the procession from the MASSOB leader’s house in Owerri, marched through the streets, carrying different placards, with inscriptions such as “Power to the Youths, Support Yahaya Bello”, “Youths Can Also Lead”, and “Yahaya Bello for the Youths”, among others.
They made it clear that the only
solution to Nigeria’s political quagmire right now is for power to go to the
youths, and in this regard, they say Yahaya Bello is the right man fit for the
position of President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
Uwazuruike, who advised Nigerians
and party leaders to shun zoning, as it has no place in the constitution of the
Federal Republic of Nigeria, said his group would support Bello to become
the next president of Nigeria because he had the leadership qualities to lead
Nigeria effectively.
He noted that power should go to the
best in the race, adding that the Kogi governor remained the best for the job
and all Nigerians should rally round the youthful governor whom he said has the
capacity to solve the problem of insecurity and a host of other issues facing
the nation at the moment.
Ralph Uwazuruike, who is also the founder of Biafran Independent Movement (BIM) said that Nigeria’s sovereignty must be upheld and the idea of an Igbo president should be discarded.
