He said: “We are standing with Tinubu and Shettima. They will take care of Ebonyi State the way Buhari took care of Ebonyi State. The way Buhari has been taking care of us that is the way Jagaban is going to take care of the Ndigbo.
“Jagaban was the governor of Lagos State and under him, Ndigbo in Lagos prospered and they are still prospering.
“This speaker has been with me for 16 years from when I was party chairman to when I was made deputy governor and then governor.”
According to Umahi, Igbos would not be guided by sentiments in deciding who to vote for in 2023.
