APC Applauds Ohanaeze: Reject Goodluck Jonathan; Stay Neutral by 1LRNZH: 3:43pm On Jan 04, 2015 |
The All Progressives Congress in the South East has congratulated Ohanaeze Ndigbo for “shooting down” a motion for the endorsement of President Goodluck Jonathan as the candidate of the Igbos in the 2015 presidential election. A statement by the spokesman of the APC in the South East, Mr. Osita Okechukwu, described those that opposed the motion, which was moved by a Peoples Democratic Party chieftain, Chief Emmanuel Iwuanyanwu, at the Imeobi (inner caucus) meeting of the Ohanaeze Ndigbo on Saturday as “true Igbo patriots”. Okechukwu expressed happiness that “Ndigbo have realized that it doesn’t make sense to put all our eggs in one basket, especially when the political scenario in the 2015 presidential election differs remarkably from that of 2011 when Jonathan was endorsed.” “Ohanaeze by refusing to endorse President Jonathan has taken a cue from Rev. Fr. Ejike Mbaka’s New Year sermon at the Adoration Ground, that Nigeria needs change for the better. “As Mbaka said, ‘I love President Jonathan and I used to be his fan, but I want good for my people and that’s why I want Nigerians to vote out Jonathan and vote Buhari,” Okechukwu added. According to him, “If the Hausas have spread their dragnets in both PDP and APC and Yorubas have spread their dragnets in both PDP and APC, then Ndigbo should not blame anybody for marginalization in the event of APC’s victory in the forth coming 14th February 2015 presidential election.” Okechukwu stressed that the APC in the South East believes that Ohanaeze Ndigbo should remain neutral in the 2015 general elections as there are Igbos in all the parties. “Igbos are not only in PDP – we have Igbo sons and daughters in APC, the main opposition party in the country today. “Our son, Chief Chekwas Okorie, is contesting under UPP, what happens to him if we endorse Jonathan? “Ohanaeze is a polygamous father, we must spread our dragnet like our contemporaries in the Nigeria project. “Like the Hausas and Yorubas, we should take the battle to every flank, not just one flank because if we channel all our arsenals to one flank, and it goes the other flank at the end of the day, nobody will take us serious if tomorrow again we start complaining about marginalization,” he said. He noted that only the self serving Igbo politicians could rise up in the midst of the prevailing political scenario which favours APC to canvass for Jonathan’s endorsement. http://www.punchng.com/news/apc-applauds-ohanaeze-for-rejecting-motion-to-endorse-jonathan/ 4 Likes 3 Shares |

I don't know why is too difficult for APC to undertstand that Igbo land is not for them, the little energy they are chaneeling with their propaganda on the south east to be directed to other region. 1 Like |

heheheheheheheheehehe... IGBOS will still vote Jonathan, Wheather Ohaneze or adopts him or not. They can't be going around inspecting the ballot papers, would they?. To each his own, Let's just wait for the final outcome. |

If Ohaneze remains neutral, power will continue to elude them. This is a moment they should make themselves relevant in Nigerian politics. Ndigbo kwenu ! |

jamace: You're spot on. Peter Obi did Ndi Igbo injustice by resisting the coalition of the political parties that formed APC. He later abandoned them to join PDP. For the industrious nature of the Ndi Igbo, they keep making naive political blunders. You don't hedge all you bets in one basket. Especially a clueless one like the current PDP. |
