He said:
“If today they get that Biafra, it is an Igbo man that will scatter it. That is the truth.
“An Igbo man employs an Igbo boy to sell in his shop, he will wreck him. He will carry all the man's money, he will buy land. He wouldn't wait to be settled. The problem of Igbo is Igbo. I repeat it, if you sell your brother, even the buyers will not trust you.”

"I disagree with the pastor. The problem of the Igbo's is Nigeria. Nigeria refused to forgive & forget about the civil war. Nigeria has ignorantly been suspicious of the Igbo's while the Igbo's have put everything about the civil war behind them & forging ahead prosperously."

"Mr suleman if u are a pastor pls preach word of God and leave igbos alone,see, igbos love them self more than you love ur wife or even ur followers."

Ahead of the 2023 general elections, some Igbo elders have started lobbying powerful Nigerians on the need for a southeast presidency.
It was reported that the elders had constituted themselves as a lobby group to get Nigerians to buy into the quest to have the southeast produce President Muhammadu Buhari’s successor next year.
In the last couple of weeks, the elders have met with political, religious, community, and opinion leaders in the north, Middle Belt, southwest, and south-south to canvass support for power to rotate to the zone in 2023.
