Its President-General, Okwu Nnabuike, in a statement, said: “It has come to the notice of the Ohanaeze Ndigbo Youth Council that one of the unpatriotic governors of one of the Southeastern states is in active connivance with the Northern Elders Forum working against the interest of the Igbo people.

“The Ohanaeze Ndigbo Youth Council is quite aware of series of clandestine engagements between the governor and a ranking member of the Northern Elders Forum that led to the recent meeting of the Forum and some unsuspecting South East leaders and elders.

“We’re concerned deeply that these so-called representatives attended the meeting and entered into a commitment with the Northern Elders without consulting to get the actual position of the South East.”
