President Muhammadu Buhari on Monday felicitated with the new President-General of Ohanaeze Ndigbo, Professor George Obiozor.
Obiozor, a former Nigerian Ambassador to the United States, Israel and Cyprus, became leader of the Igbo socio-cultural group after an election which held at Dan Anyim Stadium in Owerri, the Imo state capital, on Sunday.
The President’s felicitation was contained in a statement issued by his Senior Special Assistant on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu.
Buhari urged the eminent diplomat and scholar to deploy his immense experience within and outside government to forge greater unity of the country.
Buhari said, “Given Prof. Obiozor’s rich background, especially, in international affairs and pan-Nigerian commitment, I have little doubt that his election is well-deserved and will serve not only the interest of Ndigbo, but also that of his fatherland.”
“We need all hands to be on deck for this country to move forward in peace and unity,” he added.
Wishing Obiozor a successful tenure, Buhari enjoined him to be a “unifying force beyond his immediate constituency.”
