The Apex Igbo socio-cultural organisation, Ohanaeze Ndigbo Worldwide has reacted angrily to the fresh threat against the Igbo in Lagos State ahead of Saturday’s governorship election.

March 18 polls: Anambra Will Resist Soludo's Move To Have Rubber-Stamp Lawmakers - YPP Chieftain

As the March 18, 2023 governorship and state assembly elections draw closer, a chieftain of the Young Progressive Party (YPP) in Anambra state, Chief Ibe Okonkwo Michael, has criticized Governor Charles Soludo for reportedly calling on the people of Anambra state to vote only APGA candidates in the state assembly. Speaking during a political rally in Nnewi, Anambra state, on Thursday, March 16, the YPP chieftain informed Anambra voters about the dangers of having all-APGA house of assembly; contending that Anambra cannot afford to form a rubber-stamp legislature again. Chief Ibeokonkwo described Soludo's request as deceptive and unrealistic, considering the need to have lawmakers that can stand their grounds and legislate for the best interest of the people. He said, "APGA, as political party, has disappointed Nnewi North in particular, and Anambra state in general. Nnewi North, for instance, has been producing APGA lawmakers from inception.
