THE proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) on Wednesday sought the help of Ohanaeze Ndigbo in getting its ban by the Federal Government lifted.
To consolidate on a peace accord reached by IPOB and Ohanaeze Ndigbo, the group’s leadership visited the National Executive Committee of the highest Igbo socio-cultural organisation during its monthly meeting.
He said Ohanaeze President-General, Chief Nnia Nwodo, remains the undisputed leader of Ndigbo, noting his fatherly disposition and fight for the region’s cause. Madubugwu said most of what IPOB leader Nnamdi Kanu said or did were coloured by the information he had, which he said were sometimes distorted.Another IPOB leader, Alloy Ejimakor, a lawyer, said Nwodo has the clout and charisma to help IPOB out of its predicament.He recalled efforts he made to establish an amicable and complementary relationship with IPOB since assuming office, but which he said were frustrated by Kanu.
He restated that Ohanaeze Ndigbo believes in dialogue and the restructuring of the country for inclusive participation in the Nigerian project.Moving a motion, the Anambra State President of Ohanaeze Ndigbo, Chief Damian Okeke-Ogene, extolled Nwodo’s unequalled leadership in the past three and a half years.
