He disclosed this during a media chat in Abuja on Sunday while responding to the emergence of John Azuta Mbata as the President-General of Ohanaeze Ndigbo.

Azuta Mbata was elected as Ohanaeze’s President-General in Imo State a few weeks ago. His emergence followed the death of former President-General Emmanuel Iwuanyanwu and the completion of his tenure by Fidelis Nze Chukwu.

Speaking about Mbata, Wike declared: “I’m an Ikwerre man, not an Igbo man. I don’t have a problem with Igbo people.

“Azuta Mbata has the right to associate with anybody. I’m an unrepentant Ikwerre man, and I’m not a member of Ohanaeze.

“I will never, for anything, deny my identity just to be recognised.”

In other news, the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, has also downplayed the possibility of resolving his conflict with Governor Sim Fubara of Rivers State.

Wike criticised Fubara and his camp for refusing to carry out the directive issued by President Bola Tinubu during the peace meeting he convened.

He noted that Fubara and his supporters should have returned to Tinubu to explain their inability to implement all the directives issued by the president.

The rift has also affected the state House of Assembly, with 27 members defecting to the All Progressives Congress, APC.

Furthermore, the conflict has led to the emergence of factional speakers and a parallel assembly. ...CLICK HERE TO READ THE FULL ARTICLE➤
