Youth Wing of the Ohanaeze Ndigbo Worldwide, the apex sociocultural organization of the Igbo people, has warned mischief makers and traducers to desist from maligning its President-General, Chief Emmanuel Iwuanyanwu.
This is contained in a statement signed by the National Publicity Secretary, Ohanaeze Youth Wing, Mazi Chika Adiele, and made available to newsmen in Owerri, on Sunday.
Adiele, while reacting to what he described as spurious claims by an unknown group led by one Mr Damian Okafor, warned fabricators of falsehood to distance themselves from Ohanaeze Ndigbo.
He said that Okafor had long been suspended by the organization adding that it would be criminal for him to parade himself as a representative of the body.
He further said that votes of no confidence had already been passed on Okafor, popularly known as demon, by his brothers in Ebonyi.
“ For the avoidance of doubt, “DEMON”, as he was christened by Igbo Youths, was first suspended, unanimously on the Sept 25, 2021 from office as YOUTH LEADER.
“ 23 out of 24 members of the NEC, including his brothers from Ebonyi State, passed a “Vote of no confidence” in his clueless, corrupt, primitive, and queer leadership style. Subsequently, it became torrential.
“ We commend Chief Iwuanyanwu for his commitment towards creating sustainable jobs that will discourage such pitiable behavior by a dimwitted fellow and we the Youth Wing will not fail to sanction any erring youth who will want to hide behind a phony organization to malign our President-General.
“ It is instructive to inform the general public and all security agencies, that, Damian Okafor, was blacklisted by IGBO YOUTHS Worldwide as a result of his terrible behavior.
“ IGBO YOUTHS, are known for their spirit of respect to elders and constituted authorities.
“ Our sense of industry is that of wealth creation, setting up robust template to stimulate trade and cutting edge technology.
“ Internationally, IGBO YOUTHS are breaking grounds and shattering glass ceilings in all areas of human endeavors “, he said.
He however pledged unalloyed support to Iwuanyanwu and the Acting National Youth Leader, Mazi Chukwuma Okpalaezeukwu.
