Njiko Igbo, best way to actualize Igbo presidency - Igbo leaders in Europe

Igbo leaders in Europe have said that the best way for the South East zone to produce the president of Nigeria in 2015 is by aligning with Njiko Igbo, a group specifically set up for that purpose.

At a meeting of Igbo leaders in Luxembourg over the weekend, the leaders agreed to pursue the Igbo presidency through Njiko Igbo.

The Igbo leaders, from all over Europe, thus endorse endorsed Njiko Igbo for its ideology of Igbo unity.

They also commended a former Governor of Abia State and Protem Chairman of Njiko Igbo, Dr. Orji Uzor Kalu, for the formation of the group.

Speaking at the meeting, the Coordinator of the Igbo leaders in Europe, Dr. Basil Okeke, advised Ndigbo to rally around and support Kalu, whom he described as "the true Igbo leader of our time."

Okeke added: "Being an Igbo leader is not by wealth but by the level of sacrifices made in order to protect the interest of Ndigbo.

"Constructive criticism is welcomed in the 21st century but not when it is detrimental to the progress of ones ideology.

"We do not need sycophants to lead Ndigbo because of some double standard publications accredited to Senator Ben Obi, Senator Uche Chukwumerije and one would be wondering if these are the people that will represent the interest of Ndigbo.

"The 2015 presidency of Igbo extraction is real and we shall all work together to achieve this great task."
The representatives of Njiko Igbo in the United Kingdom thanked the organisers for putting together the event.

They said they would continue to pressurize Kalu to lead Ndigbo in 2015 because statistics have shown that he has the qualities and the spirit of unity.

They added: "We advise Ndigbo to come together and stop witch hunting themselves."
