The apex Igbo socio-cultural organisation, Ohanaeze Ndigbo, has strongly condemned the incendiary remarks made by the former Governor of Rivers State and former Minister of Transport, Rotimi Amaechi, against President Bola Tinubu.
Amaechi’s comments, which included calls for “brutal force” to snatch power from Tinubu in 2027, were deemed alarming and divisive by Ohanaeze Ndigbo.
In a statement issued by the Deputy President General, Mazi Okechukwu Isiguzoro, in Kaduna today, Ohanaeze Ndigbo denounced Amaechi’s rhetoric as a threat to democracy, peace, and civility.
Isiguzoro, also distanced Ohanaeze Ndigbo from Amaechi’s statements, emphasizing that the Igbo people would never endorse any political conspiracy aimed at undermining the legitimacy of an elected President.
