The Ohanaeze Ndigbo has condemned Nnamdi Kanu and the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), for planning to scuttle the upcoming governorship elections in Anambra state.
The President-General of the organisation, Chief John Nnia Nwodo, said Kanu’s call was not only provocative and misleading but also unproductive and advised the people to ignore him.
“Why should Anambra people be denied the opportunity to choose their own leader; Nobody, no matter how highly placed, can dictate to Anambra people when to vote, whether to vote or who to vote for.
“Anambra, nay Igbos, are still part and parcel of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. Yes, we are not happy with our treatment in Nigeria; some of us want Biafra.
“Yes, some of us prefer a restructured Federal Republic of Nigeria, but the fact remains that we are still part and parcel of the present Federal Republic of Nigeria, bound by its laws, no matter how repressive or unjust.
“Our approach to the reforms of our laws even if it leads to self-determination or restructuring, must be lawful.
‘‘We must convince other Nigerians of our point of view; we must strive to make others share our convictions.
“Our language must be civil, respectful and lead to consensus building.
‘‘We must resist any attempt to allow division among us, as to which way we must go; It must not become a source of altercations between us.
