Minister of Labour and Employment, Senator Chris Ngige has rejected the 40-man electoral committee adopted for the forthcoming election of the Ohanaeze Ndigbo leadership.
The former Governor of Anambra State dismissed the list announced on Sunday by the Ohaneze President General, Chief John Nnia Nwodo, as “being full of active practicing politicians who are card carrying members of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).”
Recall that some Chieftains of the Ohaneze Ndigbo had kicked against the alleged selection of Ambassador George Obiozor, saying that his choice has political backing by the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC.
A statement by the media office of Senator Ngige on Monday in Abuja, described the list as a product of non-inclusive process, overtly partisan and incapable of delivering an election that will be credible and acceptable to all.
According to him, “ The non-consultation of all critical stakeholders in the composition of the nominees from different states weakens its credibility and may jeopardize integrity of the electoral outcome.
“In Anambra State for instance, key stakeholders were not all consulted leading to a skewed process that threw up politicians, who were leaders in the campaign organization of a presidential candidate in 2019 general elections and who has made no disguise of his intention to re-contest.
“ I was for example not consulted just like some other critical stakeholders in the selection process as a former Governor and Senator from Anambra who has been making immense contributions to reposition the Ohanaeze Ndigbo since 1991 .
“I am due and qualified as a former Governor, former Senator and a sitting two-time minister, to be consulted during the selection process of members of the electoral committee from Anambra State.
“Apart from the offices I held in the past and the one that I am holding today, I have remained a prominent player in Igbo affairs; leading Aka Ikenga as President from 1991 to 1997 and serving as a member of Imeobi from 1992 as President of Aka Ikenga and till date, having been a Governor of Anambra State. So, I deserve to be consulted before any decision is taken in Ohanaeze.
“Go through the list and see the same politicians who transversed the country with presidential candidates, canvassing for votes .
We hitherto complained of their misbehaviour and today, they are being empaneled to conduct election for Ohanaeze.
“This is clearly a job for those without political party affiliation. There are so many whose qualification fall into such categorization and good enough for the job,” Ngige said.
“For the fact that I and other critical stakeholders were not consulted, the list did not pass the crucible of proper selection and should therefore be rejigged and a proper consultation of Imeobi done before the inauguration of members.
“Any persons with serious political affiliations to any of the political parties-major or minor-should be severed out of the list and replaced with non-partisan Ohaaneze stalwarts.”
Ngige, who earlier raised this objection at the Imeobi meeting on Sunday, blamed the President General of Ohanaeze Ndigbo, Chief John Nnia Nwodo for allegedly allowing political party card-carrying members, who are conspicuously associated with known Presidential aspirants and big party actors to make the list of the electoral committee to select a new leadership for the apex Igbo organisation in all the states and the national .
Ngige however, agreed with the resolution at the Imeobi meeting that elder statesman, Chief Emmanuel Iwuanyanwu mediate between his position and Chief Nnia Nwodo over the grey areas in the list within the shortest possible time.
The things i have observed in terms of laptop memory is that often there are specific features such as SDRAM, DDR etc, that must fit the specifications of the mother board. If the pc’s motherboard is very current and there are no main system issues, improving the storage space literally normally requires under 1 hour. It’s one of many easiest computer upgrade methods one can think about. Thanks for spreading your ideas.

I have noticed that credit repair activity has to be conducted with tactics. If not, chances are you’ll find yourself damaging your standing. In order to reach your goals in fixing your credit history you have to make sure that from this moment in time you pay all your monthly fees promptly before their scheduled date. It is really significant for the reason that by not necessarily accomplishing that, all other actions that you will decide to try to improve your credit ranking will not be useful. Thanks for revealing your ideas.
