The people voted for President Buhari massively irrespective of some deception by Igbo leaders who tried to lure the people into political wilderness.
“We observed the desperation of Northern elders that connived with Igbo leaders to extend the 2023 Igbo Presidency Project till 2027 by dangling Vice Presidential slot which has less political value to Ndigbo than 2023 Presidency.
“We commend Barr Uche Okwukwu, the Secretary General of Ohanaeze Ndigbo for Saving Ndigbo by boldly supporting President Buhari even when his life and ours were threatened by enemies of Ndigbo who masquerade as Igbo leaders.”
