The All Progressives Congress (APC) in Anambra State has asked the apex-Igbo socio-cultural organisation, Ohanaeze Ndigbo, to return the N6.2billion it allegedly collected before endorsing President Goodluck Jonathan, or face the wrath of the people.
The party urged Governor Willie Obiano to pay former governors pension.
It said hunger in the homes of some ex-governors, following their inability to receive pension, had turned them to political jobbers, “which is tarnishing the image of the state.”
APC said Obiano should also pay the ex-governors retirement, medical, security and protocol benefits.
These were contained in a statement by the party yesterday in Awka, signed by the Publicity Secretary, Okelo Madukaife and made available to reporters.
APC alleged that the money given to the Ohanaeze Ndigbo leadership by the Presidency for Jonathan’s endorsement came in two batches of N1.2billion and N5billion.
The latest amount, the party alleged, was shared in one of the hotels in Enugu.
“The statement said: “This is responsible for the crisis in the leadership of Ohanaeze, which has made the body unable to agree on the presidential candidate to adopt.”
APC said it was unfortunate that instead of the Igbo group looking for how to settle those displaced in the Northeast and ensure that the people collected their Permanent Voter Cards (PVCs), its leadership was tearing itself apart because of pecuniary interest.

Yes oh STORIES from Thief'nuibu cabal mouthpiece, The Nation.

No wonder the OP hid the source inside his post

As if they do not have senators and representatives who could have impeached the president IF any of these BOGUS stories was true.

While Ohanaeze will want an average Igboman to vote Jonathan because he is our next door neighbour, they are doing it because it gives them N6.2 billion.

What a pity that our elders are selling our future for a few bundles of cash.

Nigeria needs to get pass this corrupt administration of Jonathan. Our polity needs cleaning. Only Buhari can make that happen. And that is why am voting for Change.

Ohanaeze should come and and deny the report.
