The Ohanaeze Ndigbo on Wednesday said 18 sitting governors in Nigeria are behind the presidential aspiration of the Labour Party’s Presidential candidate, Peter Obi.

Ohanaeze, in a statement issued by  its Secretary-General of Ohanaeze Ndigbo Worldwide, Mazi Okechukwu Isiguzoro, said the Obi growing popularity has become a movement to take back Nigeria from the days of locusts, greedy and selfish politicians.

The body said it is a movement to rescue the country from adversity, economic slump, ASUU strike, insecurity and corruption and that Nigerians had demonstrated readiness to take back their country through the ballot box.

The group stated that it behoved on the INEC to make the votes count.

The group added: “As we speak, about 18 Governors from the North and the South, cutting across party lines, are behind the scenes putting up structures for Obi to win the 2023 election. In addition, some former Presidents and elder statesmen are in support of Obi’s candidature.

Ohanaeze said it was glad that for the first time in the recent past, Nigerians are united in the dethronement of mis-governance in Aso Rock, as they were determined to make a political change through the ballot box with a third force presidency.

“This is the first time we are seeing such a strong political movement in Nigeria that is not being sponsored by politicians, rather the masses own the project,” the group added.
