2023 Presidency: Anambra-based Cleric Slams Southeast Governors, Praises IPOB

The General Overseer of the Mount Zion Faith Global Liberation Ministries popularly known as ‘By Fire, By Fire’ located in Nnewi, Anambra State, Archbishop Abraham Chris Udeh has berated some Igbo leaders who he said were busy taking trips to Nigeria's capital, Abuja, in pursuit of their aspiration for the 2023 Nigerian president “while killer herdsmen are killing, raping and maiming their people."

Archbishop Chris Udeh told the 2023 presidential aspirants in Igbo land that their efforts would be in futility unless they were ready to cede their lands for settlement to outsiders.

He declared as unfair that every choice position in government at the federal level was being occupied by the Northerners while people from the east had continued to suffer marginalization for many decades.

Archbishop Udeh also berated the Ohanaeze Ndigbo for what he described as being inactive to Igbo protection against their common enemies, even as he wondered why Ndigbo apex socio-cultural organization had not deemed it fit to come up with a security arrangement that would stand the test of time.

“It is unfortunate that Ohanaeze is showing more interest in politics than its socio-cultural functions.

"I’m not a member of the IPOB (a proscribed Biafran Secessionist Movement) but I must assure you that IPOB is doing the work of the Southeast Governors and Ohanaeze in terms of protection of the Igbo land.

“The newly elected President-General of Ohanaeze Ndigbo must prove his mettle.

"Let the Igbo apex socio-cultural organization ensure that there is adequate security in Igbo land while the Governors continue in their sleep against the will of the people who gave them the mandate.

"Let them continue to chase rats while their house is burning”, he posited according to Vanguard.
