Igbos should forget about 2023 presidency for voting against APC in 2019 — Amaechi

By Saddam Yusuf Saleh

Minister of transportation, Rotimi Amaechi, has advised the Igbos to forget about presidency in 2023 for voting against APC in 2019 elections.

Okay Nigeria learned that the minister disclosed this in an interview with The Sun.

Amaechi said:

“I don’t know what they will do now for voting against the APC,” he said.

“For refusing to support the APC, they cannot come to the table to demand the presidency slot.

“For people like us in the APC, if the Igbo had come and voted Buhari, they would boldly tell Mr President and the National Chairman of the party that presidency should go the Southeast since the South-south; South-west and North-west have produced president. What argument would the Southeast come up with now to convince anybody that they deserve the slot for 2023 president?”
