Former Imo State Governor, Ikedi Ohakim has denied claims of nursing an ambition to become the President-General of Ohanaeze Ndigbo socio-cultural organization.

Ohakim said though he once led an agitation to stop some elements from truncating the January 2021 election of Ohanaeze, he never aspired to be the President-General of the socio-cultural organization.

The former governor said he preferred to work from the outside to repair the cracks within the apex Igbo socio-political organization.

Ohakim disclosed this in a statement he personally signed.

The statement reads partly: “I never nursed the ambition of becoming the President-General of Ohanaeze Ndigbo.

“It is common knowledge that I was at the forefront of the move to stop some unscrupulous elements from truncating the January 2021 Ohanaeze election that ushered in the immediate past President-General, the late Professor George Obiozor.

“The issues are yet to be completely resolved and if anything, I see myself better working from the outside to ensure that every crack in Ohanaeze is smoothened.”
