Apex Igbo Socio-cultural organization, Ohanaeze Ndigbo, says it has uncovered a clandestine political manoeuvre by a serving South-east Governor to become the running mate to a Northern presidential candidate in the 2027 Elections.
Ohanaeze while condemning the subversive plots to unseat President Bola Tinubu in 2027 also affirmed its commitment to transparency and unity.
This was contained in a statement made available by Mazi Okechukwu Isiguzoro, the factional Secretary-General of Ohanaeze on Sunday.
According to the statement, the plot involves exploiting Northern discontent with the Federal Government and allying with Igbo and Fulani leaders to position the South-East Governor as the Vice Presidential candidate.
The organization accused the Governor of financially backing the failed Ohanaeze Reconciliation Committee, which aimed to advance this political agenda.
The body said it praised individuals like Professor Obasi Igwe, Dr Harford Ugwu, and Professor Nwankwo Nwaezeigwe for their courage in exposing the hidden agendas and clandestine political machinations.
The statement refuted accusations directed at Mazi Okechukwu Isiguzoro by Chief Emmanuel Iwuanyanwu as groundless and malicious.

The group reaffirmed its commitment to upholding its core values of transparency, integrity, and unity, and urged collaboration, honesty, and dedication to the truth to navigate the challenges ahead.
