Joe Igbokwe Backs Tinubu's Eight-Year Presidency Bid

Joe Igbokwe, a chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC), asserted that President Bola Ahmed Tinubu cannot be prevented from completing eight years in office. Speaking at a political gathering, Igbokwe emphasized Tinubu's political strength and called for unity among supporters in Southern Nigeria, particularly the South-East, to ensure his re-election.

He highlighted Tinubu's journey to power in 2023, stating that he fought hard to gain his position and cannot be easily ousted. Igbokwe noted that Tinubu played a significant role in the election of former President Muhammadu Buhari and argued that he deserves to serve two terms, just as Buhari did.

He urged the Southern Nigerian populace to leverage their numbers and achievements to strengthen their political voice and support Tinubu, suggesting that votes from the South-East could encourage reciprocal support from other regions in future elections.
