Governor Hope Uzodimma
Imo State Governor, Hope Uzodinma believes an Igbo presidency is possible come 2023.
The governor who is confident that the All Progressives Congress (APC) will continue to be at the helm of affairs in the country, said it is achievable, adding it is the dream of every politician to attain the highest office of the land.
He disclosed this on Wednesday during an interview on Channels Television’s Politics Today.
He noted with confidence that Nigerians would vote for the ruling party again in the 2023 general elections.
Recalling that the late Head of State, Dr Nnamdi Azikiwe called for a political alliance which he said led to the birth of the APC in 2014, the governor called for easterners to work hard to produce an Igbo President.
“Looking and discovering that the only way the southeast would be developed is if they become part and parcel of the national politics. He created the idea of the NPN/NPP alliance, and our great Zik signed on that alliance.
“Through that alliance, Ekwueme not only became the Vice President, that alliance earned Edwin Ume-Ezeoke the Speaker of the House of Representatives and created Mike Okoye the pioneer Minister of the FCT,” he added.
While noting that politics is about the people, Governor Uzodinma explained that the eastern region has realized that it cannot attract the necessary dividend of democracy if the Igbo people continue to alienate themselves from the national stage.
“It is for this reason that the southeast, we now decided to be part of the mainstream politics of Nigeria. We are committed, we have joined the APC the ruling party.
“It is not about being President or not being President. Politics is about ideology, politics is about logic. If you want to be part and parcel of every meeting that we decide how a President would emerge in Nigeria,” he said.
