2023: I Can Perform Better Than Buhari – 102-Year-Old Presidential Aspirant, Ezeanyaeche Declares

A 102-year-old presidential aspirant, Mrs. Nonye Josephine Ezeanyaeche has declared that she can make Nigeria better than what President Muhammadu Buhari has done or would do within the few months left of his tenure.

This is as she submitted that Buhari didn’t understand the extent of the challenges facing Nigeria before becoming the President.

Mrs. Ezeanyaeche however added that she understands the challenges and has the perfect plan to make Nigeria better if the citizens of the country will elect her in 2023 as their president.

Naija News reports the centenarian made the submissions during a recent interview with The Punch.

According to Mrs. Nonye Josephine Ezeanyaeche, Buhari has been overwhelmed by the experiences he met in office but she can do better because she would take a different approach.

She said, “Buhari has tried his best but his best is not just good enough to salvage this country. He did not realize what he was coming to face, that was why he kept promising Nigerians here and there. But the realities on the ground have dawned on him and it became obvious right from the outset that his capacity could not take Nigeria out of its current mess. He has tried, but the effort is not just enough.

“To answer your question: Can I do better? (Let’s wait) until then because I will take a different approach. I will have better advisers. One thing I can tell you is that Nigeria will be great again under my leadership”.

While Ezeanyaeche revealed that she is still consulting on the presidential race, she added that many political parties have approached her to become their candidate for the 2023 presidential election.

Naija News recalls Mrs. Ezeanyaeche while declaring her intention to join the 2023 presidential race in Nigeria said if the younger generation is not ready to take up the challenge of leading the nation, then she will throw her hat into the ring.

She made her intention known during a recent visit to the management team of the Nigerian Television Authority (NTA) in Abuja where she was received by the NTA Director-General, Yakubu Ibn Mohammed.

Popularly called ‘living legend’ or ‘Mama Africa’, Ezeanyaeche is an indigene of Aguata, Anambra state, and is the founder of the ‘Voice for Senior Citizens of Nigeria’ group.
