- Nwobodo made the assertion while celebrating his 79th birthday in Enugu


Former governor of old Anambra state, Senator Jim Nwobodo has called for Igbo presidency in 2023, saying “Nigeria will not know peace until an Igbo becomes president.”

Nwobodo made this assertion during his 79th birthday celebration which took place in Enugu, Vanguard reports.

He, however, also called on Ndigbo to come together and support any body that is doing well to represent the south-east.

He also urged the judiciary to discharge their duties with justice saying that it’s only the judiciary that can prevent the country from collapsing.

He hailed Enugu state governor, Hon. Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi, who he noted has brought politicians together in the state in peace.

Speaking at the event, the president-general of Ohanaeze Ndigbo, Chief Nnia Nwodo, described Ugwuanyi as a governor whose leadership knows no boundary.

He said that Ugwuanyi does not discriminate among political parties because he treats everybody equally.


Nwodo who was the chairman of the occasion, said that Ugwuanyi would not say because one is not a member of his political party and for this reason will discriminate against him to deny him his due.

He said that since Ugwuanyi came to power, he has united the people of the state and this has brought peace to the state.

Prominent Nigerians at the event includes Chief Dubem Onyia, former minister of foreign affairs; Chief Osita Chidoka, former minister of aviation; Barth Nnaji, former minister of power; Chief Ike Ekweremadu, Deputy Senate President; Chief Frank Ogbewu, former minister of culture, amongst others.

Until we come as one irrespective of your tribe, religion or believe to make Nigeria Great and the GIANT it once used to be, there is no way, I repeat no way Nigeria can be great.

Quote me anywhere

Ask Kastina and the northwest people whether they have known peace since Pa Buhari assumed the throne.

The person on the throne need not be your kinsman for him to do right.

Jim Nwobodo doesn't represent the voice of ndigbo in anyway, he speaks for himself and people of Enugu state.

He is crass failure, what did he achieve when he was Governor........ out rightly nothing.

His voice is minority and only represent the voice of Enugu state like Nnia nwodo both doesn't speak for ndigbo.

But na your diabolical papa speaks for ndigbo..SLOWPOKEs everywhere

Jim Nwobodo must be dreaming. Who made him the defender of the Igbo's? What was his achievement as Governor? Anyone who buys this and supports him on this is equally foolish like the man.

Katsina produced Shagari, Yar'adua, Buhari.

Has their lives become any better??

He speaks for his state and state only.
as an elder in enugu he speaks for enugu state...
he shouldn't infest others states with backwardness.

Not at all.

The moment some persons realize that the Presidency or any other political position is not some monarchial title that moves from one geopolitical zone to another, the better it would be for them.

I don't understand how you expect power to be dropped on your laps when you fail to understand or play politics like most do. You threaten, issue ultimatum, curse, cuss, rant and talk like a baby on steroids just because you are blind and would rather come out to chest beat when you fail to make the cut.

I pray the absence of peace starts from his home.

You be man you knw be God oh

As if there is peace in igbo land, is igbo nt part of nigeria, it hurt me to see the so called leaders talking like u16

okk

Peace is all we pray.
Join me celebrate, I'm a year older today.

Didn't he also promise us not to die until atiku becomes president?
Or which one promised us that?



Na biafra no go know peace not nigeria.

Na una no go no peace.

Igbos remain in opposition and playing politics of hate but want presidency to fall on them. Till Jesus come Igbos will not smell presidency, let them keep playing politics of hate.

Until Igbo's drop the idea of Biafra, they will never be Presidents of Nigeria

He is speaking for himself.

He should be personally ashamed of himself, people that sold their souls to IBB and Abacha of blessed memory (apologies).

I mean, what is even wrong with us in this generation? Everybody just wants to say something-- even prostitutes!

By the way, what's his latest complexion?

You can't demand for the Presidency to be handed over to you!
