Former Governor of Anambra State, Chukwuemeka Ezeife, has said one of the ways to actualize Igbo presidency come 2023 is for the Southeast to swallow its pride and start begging every other region for the presidential seat.
Ezeife, who spoke at the United for Better Nigeria Initiative National Convention in Abuja on Saturday, said the region was ready to kneel down, even prostrate and beg in order to get the opportunity to become Nigeria’s President come 2023.
The News Agency of Nigeria reports that the elder statesman said: “So I found Hausa, Yoruba, Igbo and other groups in this place talking about the need for federal character. If you do it that way, there will be unity, if there is fairness, equity, justice, you will have unity and progress,”

“In the absence of those, you see where we are now. It is not a matter of to give us president, we don’t give, you have to work for it, the Igbo does not prostrate.
“The Igbo man does not kneel down but this time, we are prepared to kneel down to every part of Nigeria, every group, every ethnic group in Nigeria, we are prepared to even prostrate because we believe in this country.”
