The apex Igbo socio-cultural group, Ohaneze Nidigbo yesterday failed to endorse President Goodluck Jonathan for re-election come 2015.

Although the motion for the adoption of President Jonathan was moved at the meeting, it was shut down by majority of Igbo leaders.

Speaking with newsmen, Senator Chris Ngige, representing Anambra central senatorial zone said,"we have agreed to insulate Ohaneze from partisan politics.

"We will support no presidential candidate. We will be neutral because Ohaneze is made of people from diverse political parties. People who belong to parties should go their parties and canvass for their own candidates. They can talk to Nigerian9s from their own political parties and not from Ohanaeze.

"They will be doing so from the standpoint of their party and not from Ohanaeze. The endorsement will not be obtainable. That is our agreement."

Good news.

Cant tell us to wait till 2027 and expect us to still cheerfully support ur ambition. Nobody is a fool!

Clever move. The Igbo political interest will not be determined in terms of time scale and content by the Jonathan presidency.

oh na now day break for una eyes....

I totally agree with Ngige here. No partisan politics, but it should stand for the interest of Igbo's. My question is, what is the interest of Igbo's in Nigeria today?

The Igbos are already running a shot at the presidency through their son GEJ till 2015.Remember his middle name is "ebele azikiwe".
2015-2023 Buhari
2023-2031 Fasola
