The Igbo Heroes and Icons Foundation has urged political parties, particularly the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, not to expect a harvest of votes from the South-East in the 2027 presidential election, insisting that many people in the region support Peter Obi.
The National Coordinator of the foundation, Hon. Chinedu Nsofor, stated this in a statement reacting to an appeal by the First Lady, Senator Oluremi Tinubu, during her recent visit to Imo State, urging South-East voters to support President Bola Tinubu’s re-election.
Nsofor said there was no better time for Nigerians to support an Igbo president than now, describing Obi as a competent candidate capable of addressing the country’s economic and security challenges.
He, however, acknowledged that no individual or group could claim to speak for every Igbo person.
