2023: Why We Are Yet To Name Choice Candidate – Igbo Town Unions

On Sunday, the Association of Igbo Town Unions, or ASETU, stated that it had yet to make a decision on which candidate it would support in the 2023 presidential election.

This was stated in a communique issued following the group’s meeting in Enugu and signed by the group’s National President, Chief Emeka Diwe.

ASETU stated that it was delaying a definitive statement on its preferred presidential candidate “to allow Nigerians all over the world to make informed choices free of tribal or any other cheap considerations.”

While expressing satisfaction with the level of political consciousness displayed by Nigerians in the run-up to the 2023 presidential election, the association urged voters not to approach the election with tribal sentiments or primordial interest, but rather “to evaluate the presidential candidates and indeed all other candidates, from the point of antecedence, performance, integrity, justice, equity, track-record, and deliverable ability.”

The communique said, “The Town Unions thank the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), for adopting the Voters Accreditation System (BVAs).

“The umbrella body of all Igbo in Nigeria and diaspora, is of the view that if the system is well-managed by INEC, it will go a long way in reducing rigging, over voting, ballot box stuffing and carting away, including checking other electoral fraud.

“Also, Igbo Town Unions observed with appreciation the unusual patriotic zeal of Nigeria youths with which they pursue the collective goal of taking back Nigeria from those who have held it captive for many years.”
