Okowa: Impostors behind N200m debt claims – Ohanaeze
By Adeleye Kunle
The youth wing of apex Igbo socio-cultural organization, Ohanaeze Ndigbo has again raised the alarm over the activities of some unscrupulous elements who are using the name of the group for mischievous purposes.
Ohanaeze spoke in reaction to a statement being circulated on social media attributed to one Igboayaka Igboayaka who claimed that the Delta State Governor and Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Vice Presidential candidate, Ifeanyi Okowa was owing Ohanaeze N200m.
However, in a statement made available to Track News on Friday by the National President of Ohanaeze Ndigbo Youth Council Worldwide, Mazi Okwu Nnabuike, he said it was desperation and mischief taken too far for anyone to make such claims.
While warning that the Ohanaeze should not be used for such spurious and paid jobs, Okwu said there was nothing like N10m monthly dues in Ohanaeze, let alone Okowa owing accumulation of such dues.
“To set the records straight, there is nothing like payment of N10m dues by anyone or Governor Ifeanyi Okowa.
“Contributions and support to Ohanaeze are made as people are led and not by any compulsory levy.
“It is also apt to state here that Governor Ifeanyi Okowa and Governor Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi of Enugu State are unarguably the highest funders of Ohanaeze during the immediate past Ohanaeze Ndigbo leadership
