Ohanaeze Youths Hail Mohammed, Obi Meeting

Ohanaeze Ndigbo Youth Council Worldwide has commended the recent meeting between Bauchi State Governor Bala Mohammed and former Anambra State governor Peter Obi, describing it as a step towards a better Nigeria.

Governor Mohammed and Obi met in Bauchi, where the governor declared his readiness to collaborate with Obi to promote good governance and provide a vibrant opposition.

“We will make sure we come together, close ranks, bring good governance to the country and give vibrant opposition with knowledge, timelines and visions in such a manner that we will rescue and recover our country,” Mohammed said after the meeting.

He further noted that the initiative had the backing of his fellow Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) governors, emphasising the need for unity beyond party, region and religion.

Reacting to the development, the national president of Ohanaeze Ndigbo Youth Council Worldwide, Mazi Okwu Nnabuike, stressed the importance of having younger leaders in shaping Nigeria’s future.

“Nigeria needs energetic and vibrant leaders who can think outside the box to restore the country’s fortunes,” Okwu said in a statement on Friday.

He added that leaders under 65 years old are better suited to drive the nation’s vision, especially as the 2027 general elections approach.
