“There is nobody or groups who genuinely wish to see Mazi Nnamdi Kanu free in the nearest future that will be a party to any plot to dissuade our people from actively and massively participating in the 2027 general election”

He noted that God has given Ndigbo a large population and an outstanding geographical spread in Nigeria.

He added that there is no state in Nigeria that the Igbo people can not muster at least twenty-five percent of the voting population.

He averred Igbo people constitute the second largest population by ethnicity in thirty-one states, and the FCT and ninety-nine percent of the population in the Southeast geopolitical zone.
