Ohanaeze Ndigbo: Azuta-Mbata emerges President in Enugu Convention by AyakaDunukofia: 5:20pm On Jan 10

John Azuta-Mbata, a former Senator for Rivers East constituency, has been elected President-General of Ohanaeze Ndigbo Worldwide.

The election, held on 10 January 2025 at the Old Government Lodge in Enugu, saw delegates from Rivers State unanimously nominating Azuta-Mbata for the position. His emergence follows the zoning of the role to Rivers State after the passing of Chief Emmanuel Iwuanyanwu, who represented Imo State.

Azuta-Mbata, the first Ikwerre native to serve as Rivers East Senator under the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) during Nigeria’s Fourth Republic, assumes leadership at a pivotal moment for the apex Igbo socio-cultural organisation.

In his acceptance speech, he expressed gratitude for the confidence placed in him, pledging to foster unity among Igbo people and tackle key challenges facing the community.

His election is seen as a milestone in reinforcing inclusivity and regional representation within the Igbo-speaking regions.

Part of black Africa's socio-political life, unfortunately.

However, he is the authentic one. The election was held at the government lodge Enugu. And with a huge Rivers state delegates.

The twist is even good. It goes to show that prominent Ikwerre people have risen up. It dispels insinuations that Uche Okwukwu was the only Ikwerre wanting the post. This is a seismic shift. Ikwerre are holding to their God-given Igbo heritage.

Civil war trauma has finally left the Igbo nation. The senile Gowon forced them to denounce their identity. The World Igbo Congress is waiting for any idiot to come force them to denounce their identity

Nobody elected Uche Okwukwu he was defeated by Sen Mbata in the just concluded election.
Barr Uche Okwukwu was been sponsored by the likes of Nnaa Mehn Tv who was spreading fake news online that he has won.
