“Tinubu’s aspiration to be Nigerian President at this time is legal but immoral. The next President of Nigeria should come from the southeast. Any leader who is not ready to forfeit his political ambition for the sake of Nigeria’s unity and peace is not worthy of being its President.

“Yes, Tinubu has many things going for him, but this out country is peculiar, we are sensitive to our diversity and at this time, the best way to preserve our nationhood is to make the Igbo, especially of the southeast, feel that truly they are still Nigerians and they can have all the rights and privileges of being Nigerians. Make one of the President.

“I do not know what ideas a President Tinubu would want to implement that he can’t pass through and have them implemented through a President Nwabueze, a President Okechukwu, a President Emeka, or a President Onwusoanya.

“He has made governors, Senators, Ministers, a Vice President and even a President, this time is ripe for him to make Nigeria. Yes, let him make Nigeria, by making Nigeria heal. Sacrificing his ambition will be the biggest sacrifice anyone of hsi generation would have made for the sake of Nigeria”
