Ohanaeze Ndigbo says the Elders’ Council meeting slated to hold on 27th March 2021 at Owerri Imo state is against the interest of the Igbo people.
The pan-Igbo organisation described the parley as the desperation of a few people to mortgage the collective interests of the South-East ahead of 2023.
A press release issued by Chief Chidi Ibeh, President General of the faction of the Ohanaeze Ndigbo and Mazi Okechukwu Isiguzoro, the Secretary General stated: “It had come to our notice about the attempts by Chief Emmanuel Iwuanyanwu, whose tenure had elapsed as Chairman of Ohanaeze Ndigbo Elders’ Council under the tenure of Chief Nnia Nwodo tenure (2017-2021), is going against the Ohanaeze Constitution and illegally parading himself as chairman.”
They alleged that Governor Hope Uzodinma could join forces with Igbo external detractors to achieve cheap political goals.
