**anyone who disrespected the land would be hunted by it, and should not run away when the land begins to take revenge on him.
**a true Igbo son, Dr. Ngige would allow his party to fix rally on the same day the Obi of Onitsha was performing Ofala festival.
The Obi of Onitsha, Dr. Alfred Achebe, the Igwe of Onitsha has expressed unhappiness with Senator Chris Ngige, following the insistence of his party, the All Progressives Congress, APC, to hold their flag- off campaign on Tuesday in Onitsha, despite the traditional Ofala festival being celebrated by the monarch.
The Ofala festival is a yearly celebration in Onitsha where the monarch of the town is celebrated, and Igwe Achebe was to round up the ceremony Tuesday but was surprised that Ngige took his campaign flag off to the town to disrupt the event.
While rounding up his Ofala festival Tuesday, the angry Obi said it was very disrespectful for a political party, in spite almost one year notice for the Ofala, to fix their rally the same day.
He reminded that anyone who disrespected the land would be hunted by it, and that such a person should not run away when the land begins to take revenge on him.
Commenting on the issue, Gov. Obi also condemned APC rally, expressing surprise that a true Igbo son, Dr. Chris Ngige would allow his party to fix rally at Onitsha the same day the Obi of Onitsha was performing Ofala festival.
