The Ohanaeze Ndigbo has today dismissed the Abuja protests against the Minister of the FCT, Nyesom Wike, as the handiwork of opposition parties in an attempt to distract President Tinubu’s administration.
Mazi Okechukwu Isiguzoro, Secretary General of Ohanaeze Ndigbo, has specifically asked the opposition political parties to allow Nyesom Wike to focus on his duties and not politicking.
He further highlighted that the political sponsored protests in Abuja on Wednesday 6th December 2023 were mobilized by an opposition Governor and Presidential candidate to score cheap political goals and distract Wike, who is one of the pillars of Tinubu’s administration.
He noted that despite Ikwerre being Igbo, the Ndigbo will protect their own, and asked Tinubu to ignore the antics of opposition parties to distract his administration.
Isiguzoro stated that Nigerians know that President Tinubu is an experienced leader and father of the Nation. He is confident that Tinubu can catch a glimpse of the opposition grandstanding to weaken his administration through childish protests.
Ohanaeze said that “ethno religious sentiments should not be brought into every facet of our national development! Competence and capacity to deliver infrastructural and economic development in fct should be the watch word ! And there is no doubt that wike has the track record!”
