Cubana Chief Priest, a well known Nigerian public figure, has shared his thoughts on the political landscape in a recent statement. He suggests that President Tinubu, if re-elected, could play a significant role in advancing an Igbo candidate for the presidency in the future.
Speaking about the past election, Cubana Chief Priest noted that Tinubu secured victory without strong support from the Southeast. However, he believes that Tinubu is likely to win again, and that this time, the Igbo community should consider offering their support to ensure future political inclusion. He remarked, “Last election, Tinubu won without the Southeast. It’s clear he will win again. So, why not give him the votes so he can do what we ask of him in return?”
He added that Tinubu has helped promote leaders from various regions, such as Buhari from the North and himself as the Yoruba president. According to Cubana Chief Priest, the Igbo community could benefit by supporting Tinubu now, with the hope that in the future, a candidate from their region could take the lead.
This message has sparked some debate online. While some fans support his call for unity and cooperation, others remain cautious about the promises made. The discussion continues to highlight the importance of political alliances and representation for different regions in Nigeria.
