Ohanaeze Condemns Attack On Governor Uzodinma’s Residence

The President-General of Ohanaeze Ndigbo Worldwide, Professor
George Obiozor has condemned the attack on the residence of the
Governor of IMO state, Hope Uzodinma.

It was reported that unknown hoodlums on Saturday morning
launched an attack and burnt down some parts of the governors
resident in Omuma, Oru East Local Government Area, Imo State.

Obiozor in a statement made available to journalists in Enugu on
Sunday by Chiedozie Alex Ogbonnia, National Publicity Secretary of
Ohanaeze considered the attack as a sacrilege against everything
moral and ethical in the character of Ndigbo.

“This is not acceptable and must be condemned by Ndigbo,
anywhere, everywhere. We must as Igbos, no matter the cause, not
attack our sanctuaries. This is an abomination and a new
development that is totally out of character of the Igbo,” he
said.

The President General, therefore, warns the Igbo youths not to
be used or make themselves available to be used by those elements
within and outside Igbo land that want to turn the South East of
Nigeria into a theatre of crises, conflicts, and violence.

He said, “We must as Ndigbo be careful with what confronts us in
the form of challenges against the prospects and possibilities of
achieving our objective of a president of Nigeria from the South
East of Nigeria by our detractors and competitors.”

“The present attempt to turn the South East, the most peaceful
zone in Nigeria in recent years, into a crises and violent region,
definitely has ulterior motives which must be thoroughly
investigated. And so also, the idea of targeting the leaders of the
zone is equally a serious issue that must be considered by the
leaders of the zone and the federal government.”

“The Ohanaeze Ndigbo expresses sadness over the unfortunate
incident at Omuma and grateful to God that His Excellency, Governor
Hope Uzodinma and members of his immediate family were not hurt,”
he said
