Senator Orji Uzor Kalu says he’s not sure Nigerians are ready for Igbo presidency.
Kalu said this while featuring on Channels Television’s special election programme on Wednesday, February 22, 2023.
He asserted that other regions must assist the southeast region in order for it to produce a president, and he added that the upcoming election is not the Igbo people’s greatest opportunity.
His words: “It is not the best outing for us (Igbo people) because for you to become the President of Nigeria, you need other regions”, he said.
“I’m well-experienced; I ran for President in 2007 and I’m not sure Nigerians are yet ready for a President of Igbo extraction. I’m not sure because I have tried to nose around that. We have five other regions to come up with and I am not sure.
“We do politics with emotions and I want Igbos to stop doing politics with emotions; I want Igbos to do practical politics,” he said.
