The apex Igbo sociocultural organization, Ohanaeze Ndigbo, has criticized the recent defection of former Kaduna State Governor, Mallam Nasir El-Rufai, from the All Progressives Congress to the Social Democratic Party .
The group insisted that the former governor must publicly seek forgiveness for his alleged role in the hardships faced by these groups during his administration from 2015 to 2023. 'He owes an apology not only to the Nigerian people but, more specifically, to the Christian leaders and Igbo communities who suffered disproportionately during his administration.
'Such admissions serve to divide rather than unify, perpetuating a dangerous narrative that threatens the coexistence of Nigeria’s diverse communities.' The group insisted that any opposition coalition that fails to field an Igbo and Christian presidential candidate would be 'fundamentally flawed and doomed to fail.'
