Ezeife said:
“We, before now, agreed in the Southern and Middle Belt Forum to call all the candidates from the South-East, interview them and adopt one person. But that has been overtaken by events. If you look at the candidates from A to Z, you find out that there is one from the South-East who is everybody’s candidate.
“He is the true unifier in Nigeria because he is someone who will banish poverty, banish insecurity, banish all the negatives associated with Nigeria. That person is Peter Obi and he is the person whom all of us will support.”
Going further, they also called on the President Muhammadu Buhari to release the leader of the Independent People of Biafra, Nnamdi Kanu,.
They said this should be done in the interest of peace in Nigeria and the southeast.
According to him, Obi’s presidency would put an end to separatist agitations by different groups in the country, especially that of IPOB.
