Ohanaeze Ndigbo worldwide has told a Lagos All Progressives Congress, APC, chieftain, Joe Igbokwe that former Rivers State Governor, Chibuike Amaechi is more of an Igbo man than him.
The group also cautioned against the vilification of Igbo
political leaders, saying such campaigns of calumny aspersions will not work.
“Verbal diarrhoea and vituperative predispositions of Joe
Igbokwe against Chibuike Amaechi is an act of timidity and cowardice.
“Igbokwe’s unprovoked onslaught aimed at the Minister of
Transportation should be investigated as it’s organized rogue operations of
political musketeers, as its defamatory, calumnious and slanderous”
Ohanaeze, in a statement signed by Okechukwu Isiguzoro, its
Secretary-General, said Amaechi is a registered member of Ohanaeze Ndigbo in
the Rivers State chapter since the year 2000, as well as a bonafide member of
the Ime obi( the apex decision making organ in Ohanaeze) based on his position
as former Governor and current minister from Ikwerre, Igbo speaking area of
Rivers State since 2015.
“This is our verdict, Chibuike Amaechi is a bonafide Igbo
man, and there is no reason why anyone would incite crisis just for cheap
political goals, the issue raised on abandoned properties in Rivers state after
Biafra war is a hoax and diversionary, as based on the facts before us, there
is no record of any Ikwerre man or woman that benefited from the obnoxious
policy and nobody should blackmail an Ikwerre with the abandoned property
saga,” Ohanaeze said.
