2019 Elections
The apex socio-cultural organisation of Ndi Igbo, Ohaneze, has endorsed the PDP presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, and his running mate, Peter Obi, for the forthcoming coming general elections.
The endorsement was contained in a communique issued at the end of Ime Obi Ohaneze Ndi Igbo meeting held, yesterday, at the Nike Lake Hotel, Enugu, signed by the president general of Ohaneze Ndi Igbo Worldwide, John Nnia Nwodo, and made available to journalists in Awka, Anambra State.
Ohaneze said with the nomination of Obi as vice presidential candidate, the PDP had given Ndi Igbo an opportunity for inclusivity which must be seized.
The group said the PDP presidential candidate had made an avowed commitment to restructuring of the federation and reconfirmed same during his recent visit to the United States in his meetings high-level US officials.
Meanwhile, the Ohanaeze Youth Council (OYC) has opposed the endorsement of the PDP presidential candidate.
A statement signed by its national president, Mazi Okechukwu Isiguzoro, urged the South-East governors and elders to be mindful of their pecuniary interests and allow Ndi Igbo to vote in the forthcoming presidential election according to their conscience.
