The apex Igbo socio-cultural group,
Ohaneze Nidigbo yesterday failed to endorse President Goodluck Jonathan for
re-election come 2015.
Although the motion for the adoption
of President Jonathan was moved at the meeting, it was shut down by majority of
Igbo leaders.
Speaking with newsmen, Senator Chris
Ngige, representing Anambra central senatorial zone said,”we have agreed to
insulate Ohaneze from partisan politics.
“We will support no presidential
candidate. We will be neutral because Ohaneze is made of people from diverse
political parties. People who belong to parties should go their parties and
canvass for their own candidates. They can talk to Nigerians from their own
political parties and not from Ohanaeze.
“They will be doing so from the
standpoint of their party and not from Ohanaeze. The endorsement will not be
obtainable. That is our agreement.”
