Obiozor made his position known while anwsering questions on Arisetv program, The Morning Show monitored by DailyblastNG.
He said;
“Igbo presidency is an idea whose time has come and nobody can sweep it under the carpet. What is important to us is that we are promising Nigerians, if they offer us that opportunity, Igbo will produce a Nigerian patriot, who is knowledgeable with humility and who indeed will work hard for the progress, peace and unity of the country. The Igbo man is unique in sharing becasue one of the greatest problem in Nigeria is power sharing. It is the greatest cause of crisis and conflict. The Igbo man will resolve it because the Igbo can share things and is prepared to take last. Igbo will share power equitably to everybody’s satisfaction. Igbo man has conscience and is a true nationalist. I speak for the Igbos as an elected president general of Ohaneze Ndigbo. 12 governors were there when I was elected.”
Some presidential aspirants from the south east include, former senate president, Anyim Pius Anyim, Mazi Sam Ohuabunwa, Mr Peter Obi, Chief Ogbonnaya Onu, Engr David Umayi, Senator Orji Uzor Kalu etc.
