The South East zone socio-political youth group, Coalition Of South East Youth Leaders (COSEYL) has rejected the slot for senate President being offered to the South East zone in the 10th senate demanding for the mandate giving to Mr Peter Obi of Labour Party by Nigerians.
The body through the president general, Hon. Goodluck Ibem issued the statement in Owerri, the Imo State capital describing it as an insult to someone who was elected as number one to be be exchanged with a rubber stamp number three position.
In his statement he said “Ndigbo are united on this and we will not renege from our support for Mr Peter Obi who won the 25th February 2023 presidential election.
Our support for Mr Peter Obi is not because he is from South East but because he has what it takes to bring the country out of woods and he won the presidential election. The country is heavily indebted both internally and externally and Mr Peter Obi is fully prepared and equipped to pay off our debts and also move the nation from consumption to production”
They also issued a warning to the South East senators eyeing the position. Also that such senators are doing so far themselves since it does not represent the political interest of the people.
