Biafra agitation could scuttle Igbo presidency – APC warns - DailyPost .

The All Progressives Congress (APC) South-East zone, has appealed to the Movement for Actualization of Sovereign State of Biafra (MASSOB) and similar groups to stop “their war drum”, as it could scuttle the quest for Nigeria president of Igbo extraction in 2023.

The APC’s stand came in reaction to the spate of mass action by Pro-Biafra agitators.

Spokesman of South-East APC Leadership Caucus, Mr Osita Okechukwu made this appeal in a statement on Sunday.
He stated that “whereas we agree that there is gross unemployment, discontent and despondency among youths in the land; however it is not peculiar to the South East alone. The gross unemployment is nationwide and would be addressed holistically, luckily our son distinguished senator Chris Ngige is the minister in charge of employment.”
Okechukwu appealed to pro-Biafra agitators to stop their mass action and drums of war in the overall interest of the Ndigbo at home, across the country and abroad.
He noted that “our record shows that it’s better to jaw-jaw than to war-war. Dialogue is the best solution,albeit we are doing relatively well across the country and our human development index is one of the highest.”

According to the APC chieftain, “Ndigbo must be strategic in our agitation, as every evidence suggests that we would be one of the greatest beneficiaries of the progressive and prosperous Nigeria being constructed by President Muhammadu Buhari.
