Ndigbo should be allowed to freely choose who they want to be their President – Archbishop Onaiyekan

Ahead of the 2027 Presidential election, Archbishop Emeritus of Abuja, John Cardinal Onaiyekan, says Ndigbos ought to not be cajoled to vote for any particular candidate however ought to be allowed to vote for any candidate they pick to vote for.

Onaiyekan stated this on Thursday, September 24, at the same time as talking to newsmen in Enugu state.

The cleric was once requested to touch upon the recent call by means of Anambra state Governor Charles Soludo for human beings in the location to vote, now not based on emotion, but on the competence of the applicants contesting for the position. Soludo is backing the re-election of President Tinubu.

Responding to the question, Onaiyekan stated

‘’I don’t recognise what Soludo has informed Ndigbo however all i will say i that Ndigbo need to be allowed to freely choose who have to be their President and it isn’t the duty of Governors to tell people how they should vote. The governors could have their very own votes. each governor will vote for himself. permit others do. this is the only possibility that we have ti explicit our idea”
