The Ohanaeze Ndigbo Worldwide has commended all 2023 presidential aspirants of Igbo extraction, describing their move as ‘audacious’.

POLITICS NIGERIA reports that in a recent statement issued by the National Publicity Secretary, Alex Ogbonnia, Ohanaeze called on more Igbo politicians to join the presidential race.

Dave Umahi, Mr Peter Obi, Chief Rochas Okorocha, Sen Orji Uzor Kalu, Chief Sam Ohuabunwa, Chief Baywood Ibe and Dr Nwachukwu Anakwenze.
