Maverick singer Olawale Olofooro, popularly known as Brymo, has said that it is high time for Nigeria to begin considering an Igbo presidency.

Brymo, who faced backlash during the 2023 presidential campaign over his anti-Igbo presidency comments, stated that Nigerians should move past previous tensions and embrace national reconciliation.

He, however, warned that the level of insecurity in the South-East could affect the prospects of an Igbo presidency, alleging that some groups across the country have turned insecurity into a political bargaining tool.

The singer also praised President Bola Tinubu, stating that the President prevented the South-West security outfit, Amotekun, from evolving into a separatist movement.

Speaking in a recent interview with Yanga FM Lagos, Brymo said, “I think it is high time for Igbo presidency. It is time for Nigeria to start considering Igbo presidency. Let’s let go of the past and reconcile our differences and unit as a nation. 

“But how will we get there if the South-east is also slowly descending into chaos? Anytime any group in Nigeria wants presidency, they will start militancy. That is what is going on. If you want presidency, start kidnapping and insecurity. 

“One of the reasons I like President Bola Tinubu is because he stopped Amotekun from taking off. He didn’t support it. Imagine if Yorubas have Amotekun active, South-eastern insecurity active, Boko Haram active, and South-south militants active, do we still have a country?”
