The former Chairman of Atiku Abubakar’s 2023 presidential campaign council in Abia State, in a statement on Thursday, urged the South-East and South-South to collaborate with the South-West to guarantee Tinubu’s re-election in 2027.
Ogbonnaya, who also served as Commissioner for Local Government and Chieftaincy Affairs in Abia, stressed that equity and fairness demanded the South enjoy its full turn in power, just as the North did under former President Muhammadu Buhari.
He expressed worry that the South has often failed to maintain a united front in national elections, unlike the North, which he described as more politically cohesive.
“I had once raised the alarm that some of us in the South are allowing ourselves to be manipulated to work against our own interest.

It is time we see through this and form a common front,” Ogbonnaya said.
