The Igbo Community Association in Abuja has warned traditional leader Eze Ibe Nwosu against creating a rival leadership structure. Secretary-General Emmanuel Chinwoke Onah called recent appointments made by Nwosu illegal and unauthorized. These individuals were presented as ICA representatives without following proper democratic procedures.
The association stressed that its leadership remains firmly under President-General Ikenna Ellis Ezenekwe, who won election in November 2024 through transparent voting that followed ICA constitution rules. They said the group stays united despite reports suggesting internal fighting. Officials worry that Nwosu's independent appointments might harm Igbo unity in the Federal Capital Territory.
ICA leaders dismissed money mismanagement claims against them, calling these accusations a trick to shift attention from Nwosu's failure to respect democratic processes. The association asked all Igbo people at home and abroad to ignore any breakaway groups claiming leadership positions. They urged everyone to support the properly elected officials who continue working toward their goals of community service and national development.
