According to Chief Emmanuel Iwuanyanwu, the President General of Ohanaeze Ndigbo, the organization has nothing against President Bola Tinubu.
The Ndigbo Apex Group decided to back Mr. Peter Obi during the Presidential election because they believed it was the Igbos’ turn, he claimed in an interview with Vanguard paper.
He emphasized that their commitment to upholding the Zoning arrangement was the foundation of their support for their outstanding son. He claims that because the President has already taken the oath of office as the 16th President of the Federation, they are fully behind him.
He stated, “Ohanaeze Ndigbo supported Peter Obi in the election because we felt it was our turn based on the Zoning arrangement during the election.
Although we have nothing against Tinubu personally, we backed Peter Obi because we felt that it was time for us to lead. And we had faith in his ability. Tinubu was sworn in as president today, and the All Progressives Congress is made up largely of Igbo people, making it impossible to stop them.
