In Response To "Ohanaeze's" Recent Claim Against Jonathan by Nobody: 8:40am On May 10, 2015 |
Two days ago, there was a Vanguard article titled "Jonathan Deceived Ndigbo On 2nd Niger Bridge, Ohanaeze Tells Buhari" which made FP on NL. After reading the article, I wondered how a respected body like Ohanaeze Ndigbo will tell tales about the "Second Niger Bridge" by saying "no work is going on". Out of curiosity, I had to do some background check on the so-called "Caretaker Committee" to ascertain whether or not they speak for the same Ohanaeze that endorsed Jonathan only two months ago. I also did a background check on the leader of the group Chief Ralph Obioha. 22 December, 2014: Ralph Obioha Ohanaeze factional "Caretaker Committee Was Created" There was leadership tussle in the Ohanaeze Ndigbo. The President-General Chief G. Nnachi Enwo-Igariwey insisted that his tenure lasts for 4years ie 2016 citing an amended Ohanaeze constitution. His Executive also secured court injunction against any election. However, a splinter group led by Mbazulike Amaechi had a meeting to conceive a factional executive known as "Ohanaeze Caretaker Committee". At the meeting were former Anambra State governor and Senator representing Anambra Central, Chris Ngige, Ralph Obioha and presidential candidate of the United Peoples Party (UPP), Chekwas Okorie. allafrica.com/stories/201412221948.html The factional group "appointed" Ralph Obioha as Chairman thenationonlineng.net/new/ohanaeze-falling-apart/ 16 January 2015: Factional "Ohanaeze Caretaker Committee" Inaugurated allafrica.com/stories/201501161049.html 27 January 2015: State Presidents of Ohanaeze Ndigbo Dissociated Themselves From The factional "Committee" According to the President of Anambra state Chapter of Ohanaeze and Chairman of Ohanaeze Ndigbo State Presidents Forum, Chris Eluemunoh “We disassociate ourselves and condemn herewith illicit and inordinate activities of Chief Mbazulike Amaechi and his cohorts in their bid to undermine the integrity of the duly elected National Executive Council (NEC) of Ohanaeze Ndigbo”. The group also endorsed President Jonathan for second term news2.onlinenigeria.com/politics/397278-ohaneze-endorses-jonathan-for-re-election.html March 8, 2015: The Recognised Ohanaeze Ndigbo Executive Dismissed The Claim of The Factional Committee According to the Secretary of the Igbo Group Dr Joe Nworgu, a court judgement that legitimise the stay of the incumbent Ohanaeze Executive led by Chief Enwo Igariweh. He also reiterated Ohanaeze's support for Jonathan www.vanguardngr.com/2015/03/why-ohanaeze-ndigbo-endorsed-jonathan-nworgu/ 6-April 2015: Ralph Obioha Wrote An Epistle To Praise APC Leader Bola Tinubu www.newsat247.com/2015/04/my-personal-experience-with-asiwaju-bola-tinubu-made-me-to-call-him-a-quintessential-democrat-a-must-read/ 7 April 2015: Ralph Obioha Campaigned For APC in the South East for the April 11 Governorship and State Assembly poll. He also acknowledged campaigning for Buhari during the build-up to the March 28 poll. In his own words We came together to advise our people to vote for Gen Muhammadu Buhari. We may not have succeeded in winning any of the states in the Southeast for Buhari and it is with pain and not shame that we failed but at least we stopped the outlandish excessive allocation of votes borne out of our loud sanitisation of our people that President Goodluck Jonathan failed the Igbosthenationonlineng.net/new/five-reasons-igbo-should-vote-apc-governors-assemblymen-by-obioha/ May 8, 2015: Obioha Aknowleged That His Factional Committee Was Ngige's Idea Obioha in his visit to Buhari to beg for the SGF position betrayed himself and confirmed that the factional "Ohanaeze Caretaker Committee" was a conception of APC leader Chris Ngige “This body, Ohanaeze Ndigbo Caretaker Committee, is a baby conceived by Chris Ngige and delivered by Chief Mbazulike Ameachi and handed over to Ndigbo to check excesses of the people who were just agents of a pre-determined agenda.http://www.vanguardngr.com/2015/05/jonathan-deceived-ndigbo-on-2nd-niger-bridge-ohanaeze-tells-buhari/ From the above one could see that: 1. The Obioha led group that visited Buhari to blast Jonathan and pleaded for SGF position is a consortium of APC Members. 2. The group's factional Executive Chairman Ralph Obioha and Initiator Chris Ngige are sympathetic to APC and Chieftain of the party respectively. 3. The real Ohanaeze and the super Igbo majority have not turned their back on Goodluck Jonathan. 4. Contrary to the claim of the group, Work on Second Niger Bridge is Ongoing. www.vanguardngr.com/2015/01/second-niger-bridge-gulps-n10bn-delivered-14-months-jonathan/ Here's is a Video of the ongoing Project....

Tolexander:Very fine, that article only support the original post. It was the legitimate Ohanaeze that endorsed Jonathan and the position has not changed. Take a look at the President-General of the group. The Ohaneze Ndigbo, the apex Igbo socio-cultural organisation, has endorsed President Goodluck Jonathan for the second tenure in office. The President-General of the group, Chief Garry Igariwey, made the assertion on Tuesday in Umuahia, while briefing Gov. Theodore Orji of Abia, and the chairman of the South-East Governors’ Forum. 3 Likes 1 Share |

BlackMaria:Obiano though Governor of Anambra state still enjoys his inalienable right to association. His position was his own idea and was never endorsed by the Igbo majority. Beside, he never went there to abuse Jonathan. Arthur Eze is a businessman, he went there for himself and not for Ndigbos. Visiting Buhari though is not all that bad, but what is said at the meeting is more important. In the case of the APC consortium parading themselves as Ohanaeze, they made it appear like the "Ohanaeze" body did a 180 on Jonathan. Whereas they have been pro-Buhari/APC from the onset. I respect their right to association but their deceptive tactics is the purpose of the thread. 22 Likes 1 Share |

When I read the news from vanguard, I checked the names of the so called ohanaeze leaders and immediately realized they are card carrying members of Apc with their usual propaganda to deceive the gullible. We know the true leaders of Ohanaeze and anyone dealing with those vagabonds is at their own risk. 12 Likes 2 Shares |
