The Ndigbo Cultural Society of Nigeria (NCSN) has advised the Presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Major-General Muhammadu Buhari (rtd) to withdraw from the February 14 presidential contest with immediate effect.

NCSN President, Chief Udo Udeogaranya, gave this advice in a statement made available to The Mega StarNews.

According to Udeogaranya, “If the former Head of State has any atom of nationalism, gratitude to the country, love for the nation and progress of our dear country, Nigeria, he should tow the path of statesman and extricate himself from the deceits of the APC leaders and withdraw with immediate effect from the presidential race.”
