The Co-convener of ‘Our Mumu Don Don Movement, popularly
known as CharlyBoy, has claimed that the Northern extraction will not vacate
power after President Muhammadu Buhari’s second term in 2023.
Oputa, who was reacting to the alleged cold war between the
northern cabals in the nation’s Presidency and Vice President, Professor Yemi
Osibanjo, spoke during a radio political programme, “Open Parliament” anchored
in Umuahia, the Abia state capital at the weekend.
The social critic opined that the Igbo and the Yoruba should
forget the nation’s seat of power in 2023, claiming that the Northern/Fulani
caliphates were desperate to hold on to power beyond 2023.
Oputa also posited that he has lost confidence in the apex
Igbo socio-cultural body, adding that Ohanaeze had failed to speak truth
regarding the current state of South East geopolitical zone in the contemporary
Nigeria society.
He said, “You know, Nigerians, we like to talk to much. I
believe in action. I don’t believe in Ohanaeze Ndigbo. I don’t know what they
are doing as contributions to see the development of South East and Nigeria as
a nation.
“Ndigbo can never get change. I know, the Yoruba person is
getting it, except they are blind. I said, the country is sick. The people who
are perpetuating themselves in government, they want to remain there, they want
to die there. They don’t even care for Nigeria.
“So, I told you before this interview that I am very very
frustrated with this country, because, this is not how to run the country, this
is a banana republic. I don’t share the view of Ohanaeze, because, nobody is
going anywhere in 2023. They still want to perpetuate themselves in power.
“It baffles me a lot. The abnormalities have become the
norms. Things are upside down. That is why I call it banana republic. We have
not gotten our ass out from the one we are in, people are talking 2023
election. Where are we (Ndigbo) going? Can’t we all see the writing on the
wall?
“Why I said the South-West, as well as South East zone will
not get the Presidency in 2023, you can see, they are dealing with the
Vice-President now. They rendered him inconsequential. So, who is next?’
