ENUGU — The apex Igbo socio-cultural group,
Ohanaeze Ndigbo, yesterday, failed to endorse
President Goodluck Jonathan for re-election in 2015.
Although the motion for the adoption of President
Jonathan was moved at the flour of the meeting, it was
shut down by majority of Igbo leaders.
Speaking with newsmen, Senator Chris Ngige,
representing Anambra central senatorial zone said,”we
have agreed to insulate Ohanaeze from partisan
politics.
“We will support no presidential candidate. We will be
neutral because Ohanaeze is made up of people from
diverse political parties. People who belong to parties
should go to their parties and canvass for their own
candidates. They can talk to Nigerians from their own
political parties and not from Ohanaeze.
“They will be doing so from the standpoint of their
party and not from Ohanaeze. The endorsement will
not be obtainable. That is our agreement.”
