Chief Charles Udeogaranya, A presidential aspirant of All Progressives Congress in 2019 has urged Igbos to forget about Biafra and Focus in making Nigeria a Better place for All, adding that a prosperous Nigeria is better than Biafra.
According to Vanguard News, He said that The longer we delay Igbo presidency, the longer we delay a better Nigeria for all Nigerians.
He said: “The antecedents of Ndigbo are there for all to see. Dr. Nnamdi Azikiwe was a great example. When Zik of Africa took the responsibility to achieve independence for Nigeria and Africa from the colonial rule, he achieved them without bloodletting and on a silver platter.
“All other regions have not met the Nigerian dream when saddled with Nigeria’s Presidency, but Ndigbo will wipe the tears off the face of every Nigerian and rebuild Nigeria into “a state we all can be proud of”.
“Though I am a Zikist, a Nigerian President of Igbo ancestry will ensure that all Nigerians are given equal opportunity, privilege and incentives to succeed in all endeavours of life; knowing that success of any Nigerian is a success to Nigeria.

“Today, petroleum belonged to the past and new ways and means of survival are high priorities if Nigeria must pull herself out from penury and poverty.
“Ndigbo are better off in a prosperous Nigeria than in a separatist state.”
“The longer we delay Igbo presidency, the longer we delay a better Nigeria for all Nigeria.
“Let me also stress this: Yoruba, Fulani, Hausa are good and wonderful people, as well as Ndigbo and all other Nigerian tribes and ethnic groups.
“The problem is that we have neither been considerate for each other nor shown love and care for other ethnic groups like ours, forgetting that what we sow, we shall also reap,”
