Former Abia State Governor and Senator for Abia North, Orji Uzor Kalu, on Monday dismissed the possibility of an Igbo presidency through Labour Party’s 2023 presidential candidate, Peter Obi. Instead, the former Senate Chief Whip endorsed President Bola Tinubu to serve a full eight-year term, expressing confidence in Tinubu’s ability to revive the economy and drive national transformation. Kalu made these remarks as a guest on Channels Television’s *Politics Today* on Monday. He also emphasized that any candidate representing the South East must be widely acceptable to all Nigerians. He said, “I am not going to discuss anything about the Igbo presidency. But I still tell you there is a need for it. “(However) the Igbo must present an acceptable candidate to all Nigerians. No one zone can make a president. President Tinubu was not elected by the Yoruba. He was elected by all Nigerians.”
