Eze Ndigbo Obi says Tinubu best candidate for 2o23 presidency

Eze Ndigbo Edwin Obi has declared APC’s presidential candidate Bola Tinubu remains the best candidate for the 2023 presidency.

The traditional ruler of the Igbo in Surulere then urged his people to support the APC candidate, though they are aware of LP’s presidential candidate Peter Obi championing an Igbo presidency.

Obi made the declaration during a visit to his palace by the chairman of Itire-Ikate Local Council Development Area (LCDA), Honourable Ahmed Apatira and members of Ndigbo in Lagos APC led by the council’s supervisor for health, Honourable Chidi Okoro.

“The Igbo community in Surulere Local Government is fully in support of Senator Bola Tinubu’s presidential ambition because he is the most sellable of all the candidates aspiring for the exalted office of president.

“Every man is a politician. We are also politicians and we have been part of Lagos politics, so we’ll continue to support you any time you call on us.”

Obi commended the council boss for the appointment of members of the Ndigbo community into his cabinet and the party executive positions.

Apatira said there was no faction in APC in Itire-Ikate, emphasizing the all-inclusive government in place.

“We are stronger in unity which is why we try as much as possible to absorb and have represented in our cabinet representatives of all ethnic groups in the community.

“We are one in Lagos APC; we are one in Itire-Ikate. I am totally against faction in any form; I run an all-inclusive government,” he said.
