Coalition of South East Youth Leaders (COSEYL), the leading sociopolitical youth organization in the South East region, has disapproved of the 10th Senate’s election of the nation’s senate president.

The group is rather adamantly requesting that Peter Obi, a presidential candidate for the Labour Party (LP), receive the mandate given to him by Nigerians.

In a statement released in Owerri, the capital of Imo State, COSEYL president-general Hon. Goodluck Ibem called it an insult for someone who was elected as number one to be appeased with a rubber stamp number three position.

They emphasized that the South East senators running for senate president of the 10th senate are doing so for personal gain and do not speak for the political interests of the region’s citizens.

Those were his exact words: “Ndigbo are united on this and we will not renege from our support for Mr. Peter Obi who won the 25 February 2023 presidential election.

We support Mr. Peter Obi because he has the skills to lead the nation out of its current predicament and because he won the presidential election, not because he is from the South East. The nation is heavily indebted, both internally and externally, and Mr. Peter Obi is fully prepared and equipped to pay off our nation’s debts and also shift the country from consumption to production.
