The South East chapter of the All Progressives Congress has reportedly warned against further agitation for Biafra Republic, indicating the agitation could scuttle the quest for a Nigerian president of Igbo extraction in 2023. It is strange that every big man would like to posture, claiming to know of decisions that have yet to be made. So the APC is working towards installing an Igbo president come 2023? Most interesting. That is if the PDP will allow it! The PDP understandably has its own game plan. I don't know what it is.
We now have a very serious assignment on hand, namely surviving the current Buhari presidency which we all, including this writer, wished for ourselves by our own votes. Not only that, we must make a lot of tangible progress in all indices if we have to claw our way out of the cesspit of despair that we currently inhabit. IPOB has absolutely nothing to do with it. Hence it is most unhelpful letting ourselves be distracted from doing the needful and wasting valuable time engaging in the permutation of who will be the next president. Haba! President Buhari does not appear to be in any hurry to vacate the stage. He is also fit. Isn't he?
APC spokesperson, Osita Okechukwu and his group should find more credible propaganda to counter IPOB and MASSOB. Despite the conclusion of many writers including former governor of Anambra State Dr Chukwuemeka Ezeife to the effect that MASSOB and its co-travellers have no interest whatsoever in the Nigerian Presidency, many others do not seem to get it. Try setting a trap for a lion using a tuber of yam. It is as silly as that.
