Ohaneze Ndigbo Endorses Jonathan For 2nd Term by Nobody: 9:31am On Feb 04, 2015
A factional wing of the apex-Igbo socio-cultural
organisation, Ohaneze Ndigbo, on Monday endorsed
President Goodluck Jonathan for next week’s
presidential election.
This is even as the group led by Raph Obioha has
dismissed the endorsement as an exercise in futility.
The embattled Chief Enwo Igariwey had at a meeting
held at its National Secretariat in Enugu, said the
interest of the Igbos would be more protected under
the Presidency of Jonathan, insisting the
achievements of the president in the past four years
had placed him in better stead to continue in office.
The meeting was attended by former governors of
Ebonyi state, Sam Egwu and Anambra state,
Chukwuemeka Ezeife, Chief Emmanuel Iwuanyanwu,
Dr Joe Nworgu, Senator Hope Uzodinma, traditional
rulers from all the states of the zone led by the
chairman, Eze Cletus Illomuanya, among others.
Moving a motion for the endorsement, the
organisation’s President-general, Chief Igariwey said
the move was the outcome of several months of
consultations with the Council of Traditional Rulers,
the leadership of major Igbo organisations both
home and in the Diaspora.
He said it was bases on the pragmatic reasons of
continuity and a sense of solidarity as well as the
need to maintain an unbroken chain of allowing
each of the six zones to hold the presidency for two
terms that Igbos have decided to file behind
President Jonathan.
“As a people, we believe in the principles of fairness,
equity and justice which are essential ingredients of
peace and stability without which our country
cannot advance or survive as a united entity.
