The Ohanaeze Youth Council, OYC, has warned Bola Tinubu, National Leader of the All Progressives Congress, APC, to keep his money because Igbo youths would not compromise its stance on Igbo presidency.
OYC cautioned the former Lagos state governor to be careful of maligning the aspiration of the Southeast to actualize Nigeria’s president come 2023.
The group National President, Igboayaka O. Igboayaka gave the warning while reacting to reports that a self-acclaimed OYC leader, Miracle Nwosu, endorsed Tinubu’s presidential ambition.

OYC distanced itself from the alleged endorsement.
According to a statement by Igboayaka: “If Mr. Miracle Nwosu is a man, let him identify who he is, tell us where he’s living, tell us his village if he is a man. We are using this opportunity to warn any politician that wants to use Ohanaeze Youth Council’s name to cajole Ohanaeze Youth Council in the name of endorsing any political presidential aspirants in 2023 that is not from South East Zone.
“It’s better that Tinubu keeps his money because his money cannot change the minds of the Igbo youths thereby compromising this project.
“Mr. Bola Tinubu should be very careful; we are warning Ahmed Bola Tinubu and his presidential team to be very very careful in trying to do anything that will malign the interest of Southeast in the 2023 presidential project.
