“The igbos need a new president” Ohanaeze Ndigbo Speaks

According to a statement by the Ohanaeze Ndigbo Worldwide, the Igbo socio-cultural organization is urging the people of the South-East region to resist any sit-at-home order by an anti-Igbo group during the forthcoming election.

The group expressed shock and doubt that a true Igbo would embark on a disingenuous duplicitous adventure aimed at denigrating, disenfranchising and decimating his people.

The statement also mentioned the sit-at-home order by the Indigenous People of Biafra and the total lockdown order to the Igbo by Simon Ekpa, who is based in Finland, which falls within the Nigerian general election.

Ohanaeze Ndigbo proclaimed that it is the turn of the South-East of Nigeria to produce a president for Nigeria and that Peter Obi of the Labour Party is the most suitable, competent, visionary, inspiring, and energetic presidential candidate for the forthcoming general election.

It expressed concern that a youth would engage in “an unreflective drum-beat that draws his people to a macabre dance” at this critical time in the history of the Igbo people.
