The apex Igbo socio-cultural organisation, Ohanaeze Ndigbo, says it has not issued a press statement over President Bola Tinubu’s private trip to Paris.
The group made the clarification in a statement signed by its National Publicity Secretary, Dr Alex Ogbonia.
“The reckless, harebrained and unguarded statement credited to one Mazi Okechukwu Isiguzoro was not from us; Isiguzoro is not even our member,” Ogbonia said in the statement made available to newsmen on Thursday in Enugu.
“The attention of Ohanaeze Ndigbo has been drawn to the news making the rounds to the effect that we are angry over Tinubu’s private trip to Paris.
“In some of the dailies, we are quoted as calling on President Bola Tinubu to f,llormally transmit power to the Vice president, Alhaji Kashim Shettima
“The group led by Chief Emmanuel Iwuanyanwu is tempted to ignore the said press release by a mischief maker, but our silence may be misconstrued as validating the statement, hence the rebuttal.
“We want to dissociate Ohanaeze Ndigbo from Isiguzoro. He is not our Secretary General. That post is occupied by Mr Okey Emuchay.
“There is no gainsaying that some unreflective transgressors leech on the invaluable and hallowed name of Ohanaeze Ndigbo for narrow, perverse, illicit and pecuniary interests.
“It is, indeed, very curious that some editors of Nigerian dailies have been compromised to remain impervious to reason by turning a cheap lie into a media hype.
“Such editors domesticate negative propensities and convey flawed ethnic renditions.
“They indulge in cheap mendacious propaganda, clothing falsehood with elaborate wings and ultimately damaging the corporate image of their publications.
“There is hardly any Nigerian journalist who doesn’t know that the Secretary-General of Ohanaeze Ndigbo is Emuchay.
“We are incensed that anyone would wake up and issue a press release in the name of Ohanaeze Ndigbo with neither clearance nor consultations with the Igbo leadership. This is a clear case of sabotage to the Igbo nation.
“The Ohanaeze Ndigbo Worldwide neither contemplated a press release on Tinubu’s trip to Paris nor raise the issue of transmission of power to Shettima,” the statement declared. (NAN)

Posted on Sep 07, 2024 at 01:48 PMEthical Leadership Centre, Enugu recognising visionary leadership is certainly a milestone towards 'making excellence the norm'. Big thanks to Chief Ben Etiaba for his tireless effort to improve our society and it's pillars.
Posted on Sep 10, 2024 at 09:51 AMYes Rangers! Our darling team was the hope of everyone across the niger to get thrilled and be happy. Rangers was the binding wire that bound the faith of the IGBO MAN together. Because the Igbos does not believe in anybody, rather the Igbo-man believes in self and God. He believes in what he can do for himself and others. Otherwise, how could a people in a war situation be cut off from outside world, they were not getting relief materials from the world bodies, no ammunition and the rest, and things got most trying and difficult. But in such horrible state of life, the IGBO-MAN produce the great bomb fondly called (Ojukwu bucket or Ogbunigwe) that destroys and kills in multiple folds, produced fighter jets which they used during the war, the Igbo-man produced his own fuel both for aviation and automotive uses. The Igbo-man started live again after the war with just twenty pounds only and excelled beyond imagination. Rangers FC was a reincarnated spirit of Igbo-man, that of course was the reason Rangers took over the football sphere in Nigeria shortly after it was founded in early 70's. Well let me come back before I go adrift Rangers International FC. I appreciate my brother Chief Ben Etiaba "Ifennia" founder Ethical Leadership Center Enugu, for the good job he is doing , especially in fishing out our men and women of substance who has paid their dues in their different callings and honouring them duly. Finally, my Congratulations goes to Dr. Joseph Ugboaja the Chief Medical Director Nnamdi Azikiwe University Teaching Hospital Nnewi for his milestone achievement so far at NAUTH. I also congratulate the young enterprising Director of Rangers management board chief Ugboaku for his visionary leadership and achievements. God bless you all, and let the flame keep burning!
