The leader of the Igbo community in Ghana, Eze Jude Chukwudi Ihenetu, has issued an official statement clarifying recent misunderstandings regarding alleged plans to acquire land for the establishment of an "Igbo Village" in Ghana.
He reaffirmed the community's deep respect for Ghanaian laws and customs, as well as its commitment to peaceful coexistence.
Eze Ihenetu categorically stated that no plots of land have been purchased, nor are there any intentions to acquire land for the creation of an Igbo Village or Kingdom in Ghana.
According to him, since he arrived in Ghana in 1995, he has consistently emphasised his dedication to upholding local laws and traditions, adding that his initiatives as leader of the Igbo community have focused on improving the welfare of Igbos living in Ghana and fostering unity through shared economic and familial ties.
