2023: Cabal in presidency will make or mar Igbo presidency, says Adimora
- More conjectures are being thrown up as the conversations on 2023 presidency heats up
- There are several speculations about how the demands by various interests to get the coveted seat will play out
- A legal practitioner based in Anambra state, says the decision on who gets what lies in the hands of a cabal in the presidency
A former chairman of the Nigerian Bar Association, NBA, Anaocha branch in Anambra state, Chris Adimora, has argued that those he identified as cabals would determine whether an Igbo presidency would become a reality in 2023.
Adimora said without the blessing of the cabal, it would be very difficult for the Igbos to clinch the 2023 presidency, Vanguard reports.
According to him, once the cabal gives their blessing to back an Igbo candidate, the road to the presidency would be an easy ride for Ndigbo.
“Although southeast presidency will come with good governance, it still depends on whether the cabals would ever want good governance in Nigeria or not.
“Igbo presidency will surely come with good governance and if the cabals want it that way, they will look for an Igbo president who will dismantle the evil forces that are holding Nigeria down,” he noted.
He expressed confidence that an Igbo man as Nigeria's president will “dismantle all the retrogressive forces and institutions that make good governance impossible for the past 59 years.”
He, however, posited that if the cabal insists on not fielding an Igbo man in 2023, “this country will cave in on all of us.”
Adimora further stated that with an Igbo man presiding the country, “there will be justice in the system,” adding that, “an Igbo man in the presidency will champion a rebirth, rejuvenation and bright new day for Nigeria in all the institutions in Nigeria, for good governance.”
It is not clear those who Adimora refer to as cabal in the Buhari presidency.
Although, there are several media reports of an existing cabal in the presidency who determines who gets what in the current administration.
Meanwhile, former deputy national chairman of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Senator Annie Okonkwo, has stated that it is the turn of the Igbos to produce Nigeria's next president in 2023.
Okonkwo, who said the presidency has always been a north and south affair, noted that Igbos are excelling in many fields, adding that the southeast region has intelligent people who can put Nigeria back on track.
