Vanguard reports that in a letter signed by one Oladepo Abiodun Esq and addressed to the president general, Ohaneze Ndigbo, it described the attempt to hold the title as chaotic.
“Our instruction is to make it clear to you that your action and that of your group you purport to represent in Ibadan and Oyo State in general amounts to an act of insubordination, illegality and a calculated attempts to cause chaos and breed a state of anarchy in the state.”
Dr Alex C. Alozie however who has been parading himself as the Eze Ndigbo argued that a hig court judgment had given him the authority. “We had informed the whole world in the past of a high court judgment over the Igbo leadership tussle in Ibadan and Oyo State which favoured Dr. Alex Anozie and our association, ACDA, affiliate of Ohaneze worldwide. “ He said: “The State High Court in Ibadan had ruled on the 18th of February 2014 which no other court has vacated, that only me, Dr Alex Alozie should be paraded as Eze Ndigbo of Ibadan and Oyo state.”
He added that “it is quite unfortunate that most people were confused through disgruntled individuals who go about deceiving people and parading themselves against the judgment of the High court in spite of the fact that the judgment of the High Court has neither been vacated, nor have they got any stay of execution against the case.”
He further clarified that the title of Ezendigbo, Onyedu Ndigbo, Onyeisindigbo or Ochiigbo all mean the same thing in Igbo expression and that he may be referred to in any of those mentioned Igbo titles. Meanwhile, more problems seem to be brewing in the already troubled foremost Igbo group, Ohaneze Ndigbo as some leaders of the group have lashed at Governor Rochas Okorocha for stepping into the crisis.
