The National Executive Committee (NEC) of Ohanaeze Ndigbo Worldwide convened a meeting today at its National Secretariat, No 7 Park Avenue, GRA, Enugu. The meeting, presided over by Ambassador Okey Emuchay, MFR, was well-attended by almost all members.
The meeting commenced with a one-minute silence in honor of prominent Igbo individuals who recently passed away, including Chief Dr. Engr. Emmanuel Iwuanyanwu, MFR, OFR, CFR; His Excellency, Dr. Ogbonnaya Onu, CON; Sen. Ifeanyi Ubah; and Onyeka Onwenu, MFR.
During the meeting, members expressed immense satisfaction with Ambassador Emuchay’s administrative capacity and passed a vote of confidence. The motion was moved by Chief Chukwuemeka Udodeme, the President of Ohanaeze Ndigbo, Anambra State, and seconded by Chief Emeka Festus Ogwu, the Vice President General for Delta State.
Chief Ogwu commended Ambassador Emuchay and the members of the National Burial Committee, led by Sen. Ben Obi, on the successful funeral programs for Chief Iwuanyanwu. Others expressed delight over the cooperation and kind gestures displayed by the South East Governors Forum, led by His Excellency, Sen. Hope Uzodimma, CON, the Governor of Imo State.
The NEC reaffirmed their commitment to the provisions of the Ohanaeze constitution, which states that it is the turn of Rivers State to produce the next President-General for Ohanaeze Ndigbo come January 2025. It was therefore resolved that Ambassador Emuchay, in consultation with the South East Governors, Igbo Senators, traditional rulers, town unions, the Clergy, stakeholders, and the Ohanaeze structures, should convene a meeting of Imeobi Ohanaeze as soon as possible to set up an electoral umpire for the purpose of the 2025 Ohanaeze election.
Ambassador Emuchay thanked the Igbo for their unwavering support and appealed for understanding, assuring that the January 2025 election will be a huge success.
