Uche Okwukwu, Secretary General of Ohanaeze Ndigbo has revealed that Ohanaeze has not endorsed the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) presidential candidate, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar…
“What I said and I want to be recorded is that the Imeobi that was held on Thursday, January 24, 2019, at Nike Lake cannot be considered to be valid. Major stakeholders were not present, there was no state governor, there was no speaker of any assembly and there was no senator.”
“And more painful is that the Chairman of the Governors’ Forum, David Umahi, had earlier agreed with the president general for the Imeobi meeting to be put at 6:00pm or 7: 00p.m, and he announced that, only to use the voice vote to bring down the time to four o’clock. And, later, before 6:00pm, some of the major stakeholders arrived.”
“The procedure to come up with a communiqué is that there is a communiqué drafting committee, the committee drafts the communiqué and they subject it to ratification by vote, none of that took place.”
