2023: Igbo president will emerge after Atiku - Ihedioha

He went on to predict that after Atiku Abubakar the next president will emerge from the southeast.

Ihedioha said:

"Nigeria is in search for leadership; we cannot stay away; I understand the ethics, It is either we get involved or we are not involved. There are two parties; the PDP and APC. Those who don't know should know. APC is the name of criminals, rogues among other names. If you vote any other place, you are a saboteur.
"After Atiku Abubakar the next president will come from South East of Nigeria. That is the gospel in Accra (Ghana) if you somebody tells you any another thing; that person must win in Zamfara, Sokoto, Kebbi, Borno, Yobe, Adamawa, Kaduna, Kano, Katsina, Niger, Kwara, Plateau Benue, Jigawa, and among other Northern states before you can be a president of Nigeria. Emotions and sentiment don't win elections; you must be realistic to win elections. You must plan to win elections and that is where I belong."
