Former ASUU national president Prof. Ukachukwu Awuzie urges Igbo leaders and the leadership of Ohanaeze Ndigbo to speak out against what he describes as continued attacks on Peter Obi, the presidential candidate of the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC).

Awuzie directs his remarks at prominent Igbo political figures, including Ebonyi State Governor Dave Umahi and Anambra State Governor Charles Soludo, telling them that they are “no match for Peter Obi” and should “leave him alone.” The reports frame the issue as internal political pressure within the Igbo political space, with calls for restraint and public clarification from Igbo leadership structures.

Across the two outlets, the core message is consistent: Awuzie calls for Igbo institutions to intervene in the dispute and to oppose repeated criticisms or actions he characterizes as attacks on Obi. The coverage does not include details on specific incidents, but centers on Awuzie’s view that the campaign against Obi should stop.
