The Emergence Of An Igbo President Come 2023 Will Guarantee A Prosperous Nigeria- Fr. Kuka

Catholic Bishop of Sokoto Diocese, Bishop Mathew Hassan Kukah, has called on President Mohammadu Buhari to ensure an Igbo man emerge as the next president come 2023, which is the right thing to do in keeping Nigeria as one indivisible country.

Kukah made the call during a courtesy call to the president in Aso Rock on Friday where he stated: “that to move Nigeria out of the woods the political equation must be balanced via the employment of the spirit of equity and justice”.

“I believe this is the time to give our Igbo brothers an opportunity to produce the next president come 2023, this will create the atmosphere of conviviality, an atmosphere peace and prosperity”.

Kukah insisted that “all hope was not lost for Nigeria to rise up and take its rightful place in the comity of nations.

“Nigeria has all it takes to be great again and to achieve lasting Peace and Prosperity, unity, peace, equity and justice must be instilled in all fabrics of our national life”. he revealed.

“You will agree with me that making all your appointments from the North has not helped the country in any way rather the region is the worst in all ramification,” he said.

He advised that as believers in the supremacy of the will of God, “we should have no doubt that tomorrow will be alright.

“I am still very convinced that this country, with all its foibles and weaknesses, still has a great future. I am still convinced that God will do great things for the nation, not because of our efforts but in spite of them.”

While appealing to Nigerians to remain steadfast in prayers, he said everyone should work harder to create a country that would be better than we met it.

Kukah assured that 2020 would be a year of joy and laughter for the country in spite of the anxiety and uncertainty in the land, pointing out that Nigeria has always shown the capacity to overcome all challenges.

The COVID-19 pandemic will pass soon and everything will return to normal again.
