Aim for united Igbo nation, Uzodimma tells new Ohanaeze president

The Governor of Imo State, Hope Uzodimma, has urged the newly elected President General of the apex Igbo socio-political organisation, Ohanaeze Ndigbo, John Azuta-Mbata, and his executive to consolidate on the gains of past administrations and ensure that the vision of a united and prosperous Igbo nation remains paramount.
