Ohaneze Ndigbo Election: Kanu Calls For The Intervention Of World Igbo Congress (WIC)

The leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB ), Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, has unapologetically condemned in strongest terms, via his Radio Biafra Broadcast of Sunday 10th January 2021, the concocted Ohaneze NdIgbo Presidential Election held recently. He called it a fraud and therefore, it's outcome remains totally unacceptable. The IPOB leader called on the World Igbo Congress (WIC),  to immediately intervene and possibly take over the Ohaneze NdIgbo leadership structure.

Igbo is an ethnic nation in the old Eastern region of Nigeria which is today more appropriately referred to as Biafra. We, by census, represent one of the three largest ethnic groups in the country. Ohaneze NdIgbo is an apex Igbo  socio-cultural group, going by the incontestable fact that the organization is supposed to represent all Igbo communities within and outside Nigeria. It should be recalled that Ohaneze NdIgbo socio-cultural group was established in 1976 following the unleashed genocide committed against Biafrans by the British sustained Nigeria from 1967 to 1970. 

The fundamental purpose of creating this group was very unambiguously spelt out by the then well-minded prominent Igbos that conceived it. Such personalities were the likes of Professor Ben Nwabueze, Kingsley Mbadiwe, Dr. Akanu Ibiam, Dr. Michael Okpara, among others.The initiative to float such a socio-cultural group for the over all interest of the people, was very much welcomed considering the enormous displacement of the Igbos during the war and it's corresponding aftermath.

Let it be noted therefore that this group is not a political party. It's key objective on creation amongst others, was to foster unity among it's members (the Igbos), in order to adequately position them for an all inclusive represention within the political scenario of Nigeria. Otherwise put, Ohaneze NdIgbo and it's leadership are supposed to serve as the voice of the Igbo nation and clearly present whosoever the people overwhelmingly accept to be their representative for any political office in Nigeria. It was never meant to be  controlled or manipulated by the politicians. 

Unfortunately, following the persistent pursuit for total conquest by the Fulani oligarchy coupled with the twin craving of gluttony and fame mongery of the selfish/opportuned Igbo politicians, the original purpose of the founding fathers premised on uprightness and purposeful leadership, became disgustingly corrupted.

 Owing therefore to this Fulani Oligarchy's quest to further disregard and disunite the Igbo nation, a letter was addressed on the 26th of August 2020, to the immediate past President of Ohaneze NdIgbo, Chief Nnia Nwodo, stating unequivocally that they (the Fulanis) were aware that  Nwodo's tenure in office was ending in five (5) months time and had accordingly, nominated Professor George Obiozor to succeed him. 

They stated in the letter that this nomination was in tandem the recommendation of the Fulani imposed administrator of Imo State, Hope Uzodimma. The Fulani socio-cultural association that addressed this letter turned out eventually, to be "Miyetti-Allah Kautal Hore", an umbrella body of Fulani killer herdsmen in Nigeria. What a mad impunity and nauseating enslavement!

People tried to oppose this nomination but still got the shock of their lives as the same Fulani nominee, Professor George Obiozor eventually got rigged into the office of Ohaneze NdIgbo President on Saturday 9th January 2021, with the complete approval of the grossly compromised South-Eastern Governors. It is in reaction to this disrespectful act against the sensibility of the Igbo nation that Mazi Nnamdi Kanu asked the world Igbo Congress (WIC), to courageously step forward and take over Ohaneze Ndigbo.

As the largest mass freedom movement on earth currently, the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), led by Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, has vowed never to allow the Fulanis to dictate how our land is being governed again. Biafrans (Igbos) therefore join their voices with that of the IPOB leader, to persuasively prevail on the world Igbo Congress (WIC), into doing the needful by taking off Ohaneze NdIgbo leadership from the hands of these fulanised slave-servant politicians of Igbo extraction.
