2023: Oluwo Of Iwo Clears Air On Igbos Producing The Next Nigerian President
Oba Abdulrosheed Adewale Akanbi, the Oluwo of Iwoland, has debunked claims that he made a controversial remark concerning Igbos in the upcoming 2023 election.
Ohanaeze Ndigbo had earlier claimed that the monarch said that the Igbos cannot produce Nigeria’s next president.
Denying the allegations through a statement released by his Chief Press Secretary, Alli Ibraheem on Wednesday, the Oluwo stated that it was obvious Ohanaeze Ndigbo had misunderstood his message
According to Oluwo, “I’m one of the leading monarchs canvassing for a united Nigeria, equity and justice most especially for the Igbo tribe because I myself suffered marginalisation.
“I’ve invested heavily on sustaining Nigeria’s unity and will continue doing so. I expected a swift eradication of the sit home order by the Eastern Security Network (ESN) and The IPOB which I trust their cooperation with stakeholders and Ohanaeze Ndigbo can curb. I’ve reached out to respected monarchs from the East most especially the highly respected Obi of Onitsha and Igwe Agubuzuo of Enugu.
“The demarcated restriction is a self inflicted punishment in a united state. No monarch feel the pain of the Igbos like I do. The Ohanaeze Ndigbo should read more about my activities before jumping on the media. My message is to their advantage should they see it as such.”
