Ikwerre People’s Congress (IPC) has congratulated Sen. John Azuta-Mbata and Mr Livingstone Wechie on their emergence as President-General, Ohaneze Ndi Igbo worldwide and President, Ohaneze Ndi Igbo Rivers Chapter.

This is contained in a statement co-signed by Stanley Worgu, Secretary-General IPC and Sunny-Wenike Ibokejere, Director, IPC Diaspora, in Abuja on Monday.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that Azuta-Mbata was elected the President-General of Ohanaeze Ndi Igbo Worldwide in Enugu on Jan. 10.

“It is a thing of pride that Mbata, a proud Igbo son of Ikwerre extraction, who once served as an acting President, Nigerian Senate, is given the rare opportunity to lead more than 80million Ndi Igbo globally.

“We urge our hinterland Igbo patriots to their riverine Igbo patriots and compatriots in Rivers State to make this historic opportunity and reign huge success,”
they said.

They assured Ohanaeze Ndi Igbo of Ikwerre people’s confidence and loyalty to the leadership of Azuta-Mbata and Wechie.

Describing the opportunity as unprecedented, they said it was a golden opportunity for lifetime unity and progress.

“We wish to thank His Excellency, Gov. Siminalayi Fubara for his in ensuring the successful emergence of Mbata as the President-General of Ohanaeze Ndi Igbo Worldwide.

“We urge all Ikwerres to be conscious of the threats against our development by divisive forces and seize this opportunity to pursue the future of our dreams.

“This is because as the largest Igbo group arguably so, Ikwerre leading Ndi Igbo Worldwide is both historic and significant,” they said.

Those people are struggling with what's called identity crisis. And to be honest, it's not entirely their fault.

If you go to some places like Opobo, they bear Ijaw names but speak Igbo. A good example is the current Governor of Rivers State.

If you go to Omoku, they bear Igbo names but speak a different language. The state is in-between Igbo and Ijaw speaking states. And when acculturation happened, it disorganised it.

Omoku speaks Igbo.

If you are looking for Ijaw in Rivers, you go to the wetlands and creeks.

Even they are mixed Igbos, with efik and then ijaw blood.

Watch those that will cry here.

The champions of bitter hateful propagandists.

They already unleached FFK earlier today to ignite civil war sentiments

But as usual, social media has basterdised their traditional anti Igbo propaganda machine.

Once the North threatens them, they their rusty age old anti Igbo sentiments propaganda machine

Only ogbakor ikwerre we have. Ikwerre are not igbos and we have warned ohaneze and those claiming to be the president General never to step their foots into ikwerre land. @op (Which language is ogbako or ogbakor and what does it mean?)

Is it by force to be part of igbo.

We just told you Omoku people are Igbos.

Okiro who also contested is from that Onelga local government.


U are telling a Igbo person that Omoku is not Igbo.

No, let us know if they are Ijaw?

APC has taught Igbo how to float mushroom organizations in name of certain organisations and ethnicity to push their agenda. Igbo people are only second to APC in misinformation and propaganda
