3 Things OYC Leader Was Right About When He Called For Igbo Presidency by AJohnnasa(m): 4:58pm On Aug 21, 2021
The National President of Ohanaeze Youth Council (OYC), Comrade Igboayaka O Igboayaka spoke recently about which region should produce the next President of Nigeria in 2023.

In an interview with Daily Post, Igboayaka insists that the next President of Nigeria should be of Igbo extraction else the unity of the country will be in question.

He listed benefits that will accrue to Nigeria if an Igbo man is made the next president, including suggestions about the way forward for the country.

The OYC leader said this much when he mentioned that the success of every leadership is to work with progressive and visionary youths.
