A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Joe
Igbokwe, has claimed that it would take the Igbo ethnic
group 20–25 years of hard work to produce the president
of Nigeria.
Igbokwe made this declaration in response to accusations
levelled at his statements on a Facebook post on Friday,
September 15, 2023. He also termed Igbo people as
“onlookers in the Nigerian project.”
Igbokwe, whose continued romance with the All
Progressives Congress has been seen as treachery,
bootlicking, sleazy, and unbecoming, took the opportunity
to respond to comments regarding the issue on the
Facebook post.
“This is the problem. You terrible and pathetic bigots think
you are the best God ever created and this is the biggest
problem facing Igboland. today.
“Jisienu Ike. Every election year you cry. Play politics.
Mbanu. Make friends across Nigeria. Mbanu. Build bridges.
Mbanu. We have become onlookers in Nigeria. See 2031
and 2039 are also settled. Continue.
“But know this and have inner peace: it will take any Igbo
man 20 -25 years of hard work to produce the president of
Nigeria,” he maintained.
Igbokwe also referred to the way he had been branded a
saboteur, betrayal and sell-out, liking his situation to what
was obtained during the Nigerian civil war. He also said
the Igbo were still making the mistakes they made during
the civil war.
“We are getting worse by the day and I am worried to the
marrows given what I read here. Speak the truth and
instantly you become a traitor, saboteur, betrayer, sell out,
the kind of stuff we witnessed during the civil war from
1967 to 1970 and Biafra lost many competent, educated
and committed Soldiers.
“My take: If you believe that LP won the presidential
elections you can believe anything. Shame has enveloped
me. Just read the narratives above and you will want to
throw up. What has happened to Igbo? We are still making
the mistakes we made during the civil war.”
