Former Imo State Governor, Ikedi Ohakim, has distanced himself from the moves to install him as the next President-General of the apex Igbo sociocultural organization, Ohanaeze Ndigbo.
Ohakim said he has no interest in Ohanaeze’s presidency at this point in time.
In a statement he signed, the former governor said he’s focused on the burial of the late President-General, Emmanuel Iwuanyanwu.
The former governor said he’s committed to ensuring that Iwuanyanwu receives a befitting farewell and not on the issue of succession.
Ohakim urged those behind the falsehood to desist from circulating such information.
According to Ohakim: “My attention has been drawn to a widely published media report linking me with a certain move in some quarters to install me as the next President-General of Ohanaeze Ndigbo worldwide; and as a result of which I have been inundated with inquiries from well-meaning Nigerians seeking clarification.
“Let me be clear: I have no knowledge of any plans to elect or appoint me as the next President-General of Ohanaeze Ndigbo. No individual or group has contacted me, neither have I expressed interest in the position.
“I urge those spreading this malicious and reckless disinformation and bringing up the politics of Ohanaeze Ndigbo at this stage to desist from it and allow Ndigbo to mourn and reflect on the late Ahaejiagamba’s legacy, which brought peace and tranquility to our organization and Ala Igbo as a whole.
“I reiterate: I have no involvement in or interest in the Ohanaeze Ndigbo presidency at this time.”
