A Coalition of Igbo Youth Groups and Ohanaeze Ndigbo Youth Council Worldwide at the weekend identified Science and Technology Minister Dr Ogbonnaya Onu and Ebonyi Governor David Umahi as best Igbo candidates for the Presidency in 2023.

A statement by OYC President, Okechukwu Isiguzoro, affirmed Umahi and Onu are widely acceptable and accessible, making them the best presidential materials.“Both are transparent in governance, with proven track records of achievements and without questionable criticism from any quarter to become President Muhammadu Buhari’s successor in 2023,” they added.

They said: “The Chairman of Southeast Governors Forum and Governor of Ebonyi State, David Umahi,is the jewel of the Southeast with evidence of infrastructural development in Ebonyi. He is the best performing Governor in Southeast and he is eminently capable to be PDP presidential candidate in 2023. “Dr Ogbonnaya Onu is a first class scientist, a former Governor of Old Abia, won the defunct APP Presidential ticket in 1998, the former National Chairman of defunct ANPP, the arrowhead of the merger of three political parties that formed APC and the Minister of Science and Technology, with impeccable leadership qualities, tested and trusted, a great Nigerian patriot and without any trace of corruption allegations for decades, he is the most consistent Southeast politician and well acceptable...
