We'll REJECT Any Restructuring Done By Any Northern President - Ohaneze Youths Reignite South/Northern Discordance Tune


Ohaneze Igbo
The discordance tune ongoing between the northern and southern youths of Nigerian has continued as the youths wing of the apex socio-cultural group of Igbos, the Ohaneze Ndigbo has said they would not accept any kind of restructuring spearheaded by any northern president, including President Muhammadu Buhari, saying it would not reflect equity and fairness.

The group rather said it would prefer a restructuring exercise to be overseen by an Igbo leader or a leader from the South but not from the North. 

According to them, any restructuring conducted by the Buhari administration would definitely favor the North, thereby leading to a continuation of the agitations. 

Secretary General of the Council, Mazi Okwu Nnabuike, who said this, explained that restructuring of Nigeria overseen by a leader from the South would definitely ensure equity and fairness to all parts of the country. 


Meanwhile, the parent body of Ohaneze Ndigbo also yesterday took a swipe at the leadership of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, for allegedly ordering that the November 18, 2017 governorship election in Anambra State should not be conducted. 

The President-General of Ohanaeze Ndigbo, Chief John Nwodo, who led other national leaders of the organization to the Anambra State House of Assembly, warned leaders of groups championing self-rule for the Igbo nation not to arrogate to themselves the supreme leadership of Igboland. 

He said though it was obvious that Ndigbo were suffering marginalization in the affairs of the country, Igbo was still part and parcel of Nigeria, adding that in seeking mitigation of the injustice being meted to Ndigbo, civilized approach should be adopted. 

He lashed out at the leader of IPOB for, according to him, making unguarded utterances that Anambra State governorship election slated for November would not hold, explaining that such utterance had already drawn the attention of the Inspector General of Police who, he stated, had deployed more police personnel to patrol Anambra State.

Kanu’s utterance, Nwodo stated, had breached the undertaking he took before him (Nwodo) when he was released from detention.
