The Ohanaeze Ndigbo has urged Ndigbos to pray for God’s intervention in restoring peace and security in the Southeast.


Ohanaeze made the appeal while condemning the latest spree of killings and bloodbaths in Imo State and other parts of the region.

The factional Secretary-General of Ohanaeze, Okechukwu Isiguzoro, made the call ahead of this year’s Igbo Day celebration.

Isiguzoro called on “Ndigbo to pray for God’s intervention to restore peace and security across the country, especially in the southeast and Imo State in particular.”

On September 23, 2023, the Igbo people of Port Harcourt, Rivers State, gathered at the Seventh-Day Adventist Church for a Thanksgiving Service and Prayer Session.

The event was organized by Ohanaeze Ndigbo, an Igbo socio-cultural organization, as part of the preparation for the Grand Finale of the Igbo Day celebration, which was scheduled to take place at the Liberation Stadium in Port Harcourt on September 29th.

The service was attended by a large number of Igbo people, including representatives of Ohanaeze Ndigbo led by Professor Thomas Amadi Ellah and Prince Richard Ozobu, the chairman of the Elders Forum.

In his opening remarks, Professor Ellah expressed his joy that despite the insecurity challenges and other difficulties “facing the Igbo people, they had every reason to be thankful to Chukwu Okike Abiama (Almighty God) for His faithfulness and mercy.”

He noted that Ndigbo had been preserved and had survived in the seven Igbo-speaking states, including Rivers State and Anioma in Delta State, and that this was a cause for celebration.

They really need the prayers.

What IPOB and Simon Ekpa are doing to that region is totally out of place. How can they extend weekends to Mondays? It is crippling the economy of that region. People are even scared of going there. Businessmen are running out of that region to other places to invest.

IPOB was proscribed as a terrorist organization by the government of Nigeria, yet, the people are still obeying them. Are the people also terrorists? Or are they supporting terrorists? The Igbos need to Love themselves, come out with one voice and kill the monster destabilizing that region.
