The Northern Elders, operating under the aegis of Coalition of Northern Elders for Peace and Development, have thrown their weight behind Igbo presidency, insisting that Nigeria’s 2023 presidency should rotate to the South East zone.
The Northern Elders explained that their position was borne out of the need for every part of the country to be fairly and equitably treated in the nation’s political affairs. "This will bring an end to the manifest marginalisation of the South East. This will foster national unity, and also bring to a close, the bitterness of the Nigeria-Biafra civil war which has lingered for 50 years since the end of hostilities and engender unity," they said.
