Why Buhari Told A Man He Would Be First To Cast His Vote For Igbos If They Want Nigeria -Hadi Sirika

Hadi Sirika, the minister of aviation, has disclosed that President Muhammadu Buhari told a man in the United States of America that he will be the first person to support the Igbos to get power if they want Nigeria. Buhari made this statement in response to the man’s question about whether or not the Igbos want Nigeria. This reply was made by Buhari in answer to the man’s inquiry on whether or not the Igbos desire to be a part of Nigeria.
Hadi Sirika has disclosed that in 2004, while Buhari was attending a meeting in New Jersey, United States, a young guy approached him and asked if he would support a “Igbo president.” The question was posed to Buhari by the individual who had contacted him. This information was revealed by Hadi Sirika while he was giving a speech during the “Day of Tribute,” which is a component of the schedule for the funeral of Chief Mbazulike Amaechi, who served as Aviation Minister in the past.
According to Hadi Sirika, President Buhari expressed his respect to the young guy for a number of Igbo individuals who had achieved considerable achievement for both themselves and their country. According to him, Buhari also told the individual that the Igbos are present in every part of Nigeria and that all that is required for them to seize power is for them to create coalitions in every region of the country. This information was conveyed by Buhari to the individual during their conversation. According to what he reportedly said next, Buhari told the man that he would be the first person to cast his ballot for Igbos if they wanted Nigeria, but he would urge them to vote for Nigeria if they wanted Biafra instead of Nigeria. This information was reportedly conveyed to the man by Buhari.
The following quote comes directly from Sirika: “[Buhari] went on and on mentioning Igbo people and what they had done for the country which I have forgotten but we have the records. He stated that rather than this massive population of Nigeria, which he claimed to be present in each and every polling unit, attempting to comprehend what Zik himself had said, extending their hands across the nation in order to form a massive political alliance, negotiating, and seizing power, they have instead resigned themselves to the idea of forming a new nation that will be called Biafra. He claimed that this massive population of Nigeria was present in each and every polling unit.
“He stated that if today the Igbo people will call for Nigeria, I, Muhammadu Buhari, will be the first person to throw my vote for them; however, if they ask for Biafra, I will insist on Nigeria, and that will be the drawing line.” “He stated that if today the Igbo people will call for Nigeria, I, Muhammadu Buhari, will be the first person to throw my vote for them.”
