The apex Igbo socio-political organisation, Ohanaeze Ndigbo, has reacted to reports claiming that National Leader of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Bola Tinubu will run for the office of the president in 2023.<\/p>\n

Ohanaeze\u2019s Deputy Spokesperson, Chuks Ibegbu, in an exclusive interview with DAILY POST, said Tinubu should not run for presidency on the basis of morality.<\/p>\n

Just last week, former Aviation Minister, Femi Fani-Kayode had commended the APC National Leader for \u201caspiring\u201d to be president in 2023.<\/p>\n

Fani-Kayode had tweeted: \u201cI am not in Bola Tinubu\u2019s party but I commend him for having the courage to aspire to be President in 2023.<\/p>\n

\u201cHow many southern politicians from either APC or PDP have had the guts to do that? If nothing else he has challenged the myth that the north owns Nigeria.\u201d<\/p>\n

However, Ibegbu alleged that most people in the South East are not comfortable with the former Lagos State Governor; hence he should not run for president.<\/p>\n

According to Ibegbu: \u201cEvery Nigerian has the right to contest for any position but we are talking about morality now, Tinubu has the right, I Chuks Ibegbu has the right to be president of this country but we are talking about morality, justice, fairness and equity.<\/p>\n

\u201cTinubu has the right to come out to be president but by right, equity and fairness he should not come out, he has no reason to come out morally.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn the South West, many are not comfortable with him so he should not come out.\u201d\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
