In a statement released amid the ongoing controversy, Secretary-General Okechukwu Isiguzoro clarified that Obi’s personal opinions on this matter do not represent the collective stance of the Igbo Nation as embodied by Ohanaeze Ndigbo.

 

“While we acknowledge Mr. Obi’s concerns about Nigeria’s economic challenges and the necessity to tackle pressing issues like insecurity, poverty, and hunger, Ohanaeze Ndigbo firmly believes that the safety and security of our nation’s leaders must take precedence,” Isiguzoro stated.

He highlighted that the current Presidential fleet, acquired over two decades ago during the Obasanjo administration, poses significant security risks and could hinder the President and Vice President in performing essential duties.

Citing recent fatal incidents involving outdated aircraft, such as those resulting in the deaths of the President of Iran and the Vice President of Malawi, Isiguzoro emphasized the importance of upgrading the Presidential fleet to protect Nigeria’s leaders.

“Ohanaeze Ndigbo wholeheartedly supports the Federal Government’s decision to procure new Presidential jets to ensure the safety of President Tinubu and Vice President Shettima,” he affirmed.

The organization recognized Obi’s genuine concerns for the Nigerian populace and his aspirations for economic improvement, urging him to collaborate with President Tinubu to provide constructive input and support for policies aimed at alleviating the hardships faced by citizens.

“Ohanaeze Ndigbo remains committed to fostering unity, progress, and the well-being of all Nigerians. We firmly believe that through cooperation, we can work towards a brighter future for our nation,” the statement concluded.
