Ohanaeze Ndigbo Worldwide has warned that any declaration of boycott or sit at home will give automatic victory to the All Progressives Congress (APC)

According to the Apex Sociocultural organization, “Any declaration that unleashes untold hardship, the collapse of commercial and industrial activities, a boycott of Anambra elections and interrupts the academic calendar in South -Eastern States are viewed as nonsensical, absurd and anti-Igbo agenda for the enemies amusement”, adding that any boycott, would make APC win the forthcoming governorship election in Anambra State.

Secretary – General of Ohanaeze Ndigbo Worldwide, Mazi Okechukwu Isiguozoro, in a statement released few minutes ago, whilst warning IPOB, noted:” You can’t enslave Ndigbo for one week without backlash from them, it’s time for Igbo to rise to the occasion and end up being trampled with orders from overseas by those without any investments in the southeast”.

The statement emphasized : “POB should discern that there have been self-determination struggles in Africa, before now, Nelson Mandela spent 27 years in jail, never in the annals of the history of the movement against Apartheid, was starvation, anguish, and catastrophe unleashed on Black South Africans by ANC, it’s an impulsive and reckless imperilment against IGBO to order them to observe One week Sit- at- home when it’s obvious that Nnamdi Kanu will not be released without the approval of courts, secondly had IPOB declined to learn from the blunders and mistakes of Former Massob Leader Ralph Uwazurike on the boycott of Population census of 2001 which made Igbo the Majority-Minority in Nigeria, attempts to boycott Anambra elections evidently will favor APC to win Anambra elections. IPOB should revisit and nullify the one week sit – at – home or they will likely lose the support of Igbo henceforth, Ndigbo must participate in Anambra and nothing should stop it.

“Ndigbo should ask anyone enforcing the One week Sit – at – Home, if they know the plight of common people who are street vendors on perishable goods, artisans, motorists, market traders, furthermore Ndigbo should check out the investments of those calling for one week Sit – at – Home, if proponents of the sit – at-home don’t have any visible investments in the South -East then it’s time for Igbo to retreat from observation of the Sit – at – Home and defer it from henceforth. We call for the unconditional release of Nnamdi Kanu since Federal Government had refused to declare bandits terrorists”.
