Ikedife to Igbo: you can’t get Presidency on platter of gold

APC PDP

Anambra State deputy governorship candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in 2017 Mr. Dozie Ikedife has called on Igbo to support the re-election of President Muhammadu Buhari.
He urged them to be realistic by understanding the dynamics of Nigerian politics, saying the presidency would not come on a platter of gold.
Ikedife, who addressed reporters yesterday ahead of the President’s visit tomorrow, said the visit was “to prove practically that he cares for the Igbo.”
According to him, there were a lot to show for Igbo votes to support Buhari to complete his eight years, including reconstruction of major federal roads in Southeast, construction of the second Niger Bridge and the completed mausoluem of the late Dr Nnamdi Azikiwe.
He said: “It baffles me why some politicians from Southeast cannot understand the simple calculation that to negotiate for Igbo presidency under Buhari’s remaining four years is shorter than waiting for another eight years of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), which might not be realisable.”
Ikedife reiterated that supporting Buhari’s  second tenure would make the Igbo stand a better chance to produce the President in 2023.
He said: “We are all campaigning, and by the grace of God, we will return Buhari to Aso Rock to complete his eight-year tenure. He has been going round the country to tell Nigerians how he has done a lot of things in his first tenure.
“He has revamped agriculture, the aviation industry with new airports in place, paid pension arrears, empowered youths, other categories of the population and even resolved that school children are fed. And that is a landmark achievement, these in addition to his fight against corruption.”
