According to him, We have President of the Association who is established and who is doing very well and you say she is a woman and we should destroy the structure and put up a man.

” I think it is not fair under any condition that is why I am worried . It surprises me that some group of people who were there about six years ago when she was elected as Deputy President, the position she held for four years and everybody knows that whoever is deputy President is a potential President if the President dies , the person will succeed him, but this did not happen .

” These people allowed it and they just come and say the structure should be dismantled, I don’t think it is in the interest of Ohanaeze Ndigbo for the structure to be dismantled and it will be a wrong thing if we listen to that advice, a structure that is serving the interest of Igbo.”
