Eze Dr. Chika Nwokedi Knocks Dr. Jonathan Nnaji Hard, Says He Is Not Legitimate Igbo Speaking Community  BOT Chairman, Accuses Him Of Destructive Politics For Selfish Motives 

By Mariam Adedamola Oyewole 

The hitherto Crisis  bedeviling the Igbo Speaking community Association in Lagos State, appears to have taken a deeper dangerous dimension , following recent misunderstanding between the Chairman,Council of Ndieze , Eze Ambassador Dr. Chika C. Nwokedi and the Board of Trustee,BOT Chairman, Dr. Jonathan Nnaji.

Nnaji was alleged to have published several damaging reports in an online Newspaper( Name withheld ) ,which allegedly put Eze Nwokedi’s image and position as the Chairman of Ndieze in bad light .

Responding to the several alleged publications instigated by Nnaji, Eze Nwokedi, also know as Okpoko 1, categorically dismissed the acclaimed BOT Chairmanship office Dr. Jonathan Nnaji is currently known  or and parading himself as.

He challenged  Dr. Nnaji to come out clear and prove to Ndigbo, how he emerged and or transformed himself into Igbo Speaking community Association BOT Chairman from the post of Treasurer he has been many years ago.

Putting the records straight, Eze Nwokedi accused Nnaji of running one man show illegitimate BOT Chairmanship, which he said Nnaji usurped , while cleaverly capitalizing on the vacuum created by the death over 15 years ago ,of the last known legitimate and genuine BOT Chairman, Late Chief Uche Chukwuka from Enugu State.

Angered by what he described as selfish, fraudulent motives, Eze Nwokedi revealed alleged illegalities committed by Dr. Nnaji, ranging amongst others from ,”collecting official Igbo Speaking Community Association Election forms money with his private bank account details; Commercializing issuance of worthless  certificates in the name of BOT Chairman, Igbo Speaking community Association, to some deceived,unwary Ndieze Ndigbo; Unlawful demands of Goat, N250,000 , Kola nuts etc from deceived Ezes ;Selfish support to a tenure expired Council of Ndieze in ikeja; Deliberately Creating Crisis Between two Igbo Speaking community Association factions,so as to make money and to  remain the only visible, viable BOT Chairman ; none conduct of elections or  and appointment into the BOT ,many years after the death of Nine members out the original 14 membership and relocation of others due to old age, retirement and  new Jobs”.

He called on Igbo leaders, legal luminaries to Wade into the issues he has raised ,with a view of forestalling Nnaji from dragging Igbo integrity and cultural heritage into mud.

Lampooning Nnaji for attempting to stampede ,stagnant and deliberately Frustrating other states from assuming Igbo Speaking Community Association BOT Chairmanship, Eze Nwokedi, asked how Nnaji from Enugu State, would try to replace another late Chief Uche Chukwuka from same Enugu State, in an Association comprising all Igbo Speaking States.

According to him : ” Time has come for Ndigbo to hear and know the truth about what is happening in the Igbo Speaking Community ,Lagos state.I , Eze Chika Nwokedi ,was brought into Igbo Speaking Community by my Mentor over 20 years ago in 1999,by the late Board of Trustee,BOT Chairman, Chief Uche Chukwuka from Enugu State, he was the then CEO of Mac Royal Hotel, Mushin and Enugu . He was also the Chairman of my Wedding in August 25th,2001 at the Army Resettlement Center, Oshodi”.

He said,”let it be on record that  Dr. Jonathan Nnaji , has no power to control the Igbo Speaking community Association,he was merely then the Treasurer ,out of the then 14 Members of the BOT, with 9 members dead many years ago, two aged now in the village and in their 90 years Age bracket.He has no quorum with just two people,to take decisions that he is purportedly making”.

Eze Okpoko 1,Challenged Nnaji to bring him before any constituted authority to disapprove his revelations and noted that “It is not in the constitution of Igbo Speaking Community for Nnaji to collect money and issuing certificate to Ndieze.This collecting of goat and money is fraudulent.Nnaji has no constitutional right to be collecting Igbo Speaking Community Election forms money with his personal account details. He was just a Treasury and not the BOT Chairman as at the time in question .

“He is deliberately creating the confusion and crisis in the Igbo Speaking Community,so as to continue his game of converting Igbo Speaking Community to his business center . Let Nnaji tender Igbo Speaking Community constitution, where he derived the powers he is exercising.He is not the Electoral body but for over one year, the Election forms money he collected are still in his account.

“Infact, he has no power to control Igbo Speaking Community and he is not the authentic and genuine BOT Chairman”, Eze Nwokedi Narrated.
