The

Worldwide, the apex

socio-cultural organization, considers it a matter of profound national significance and, compelled by its moral responsibility, issues this communiqué. We issue a stern warning to Mr.

, former Governor of Anambra State, and the leadership of his political party, the African Democratic Congress (ADC).

We categorically demand an immediate halt to all financial and logistical support directed at individuals and groups who, under the guise of civil rights activism, are engaged in a malicious campaign of calumny. Their deliberate objective is to tarnish the reputation and undermine the integrity of Senator Dave Nweze Umahi, a distinguished Igbo leader and the current Honorable Minister of Works.

Credible intelligence, supported by recent events, confirms our suspicion. The anti-Umahi protests on Wednesday, 4th March 2026, at the Ministry of Works in Abuja, display clear signs of orchestration by opposition forces. The active participation of known allies of Mr. Obi, including Ms. Oruche Precious (Mama Pee) and Peter Akah, reinforces this conclusion.

Let it be unequivocally stated: The

, having closely examined the situation, conclude that Mr. Peter Obi and the ADC are, either directly or indirectly, exploiting individuals like Mr. Nicholas Ohiri as political pawns. These actors are being used to spread unfounded accusations and engage in blackmail, with the sole purpose of diverting the Honorable Minister of Works from his duties and delaying the delivery of transformative infrastructure projects championed by President Bola Ahmed

.

Further intelligence reveals a meticulously planned strategy by the ADC ahead of the

elections. Recent political maneuvers by Mr. Obi’s associates indicate that key allies of

are being systematically targeted for political blackmail. Following Senator Umahi, it appears that the Hon. Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Mr. Nyesom Wike; the Minister of State for Defence, Dr. Bello Matawalle; and others are likely next. The ADC’s approach relies on intimidation and the spread of falsehoods rather than presenting credible alternatives or policies.

Senator Umahi remains steadfast and undeterred by these petty machinations. The Igbo youth, fully aware of the gravity of the situation, have been tasked with safeguarding him from any form of physical confrontation. The Igbo nation stands united, committed to protecting Senator Umahi from blackmail, intimidation, or disruption of his mandate.
