Kogi/Bayelsa: Ohanaeze Youths Urge Igbo To Vote Thier Conscience

By Ayodele Oluwafemi

Ohanaeze Ndigbo Youth Council Worldwide, has urged Igbo living in Bayelsa and Kogi States to vote according to the conscience in the gubernatorial elections this weekend.

Ohanaeze Youth asked Igbo to vote for candidates whose policies will affect them positively irrespective of political affiliations.

The group, in a statement, on Tuesday,  through its President General, Mazi Okechukwu Isiguzoro and Mazi Okwu Nnabuike, the Secretary General, claimed that Igbo residing outside Igboland face critical challenges, numbering from untold hardship through harsh-induced environment to imposition of double taxations by the host communities, making it unsafe for them to thrive in their business endeavors

The group said:

“We have cancelled all endorsement of candidates in Bayelsa and Kogi States ahead of Guber elections holding in November 16th 2019.

“Some people used our name to endorse candidates, as there’s no authorization for Igbo to take side with any candidate.

“It’s the exclusive right for any Igbo with PVC residing in Bayelsa and Kogi States to exercise his or her franchise and vote according to his or her conscience.

“There’s no preferred candidate or imposed party or any Igbo Party or imposed decision on Igbo to vote for anyone.

“Go out enmass and cast your vote to any candidate of your choice. We urge security agents to protect voters especially Igbo during the Nov 16th elections.”
