Nigerians from different tribes, ethnic groups, and religions buy food from the same market and face the same insecurity, unemployment, and suffering.
I’m not contesting this election because I’m an Igbo man, but because I’m a Nigerian and the most qualified to be the president with the votes of Nigerians who wants a new Nigerians.
