Okwu Nnabuike, the national president of the Ohanaeze Ndigbo Youth Council, claims that his life is in danger since he congratulated Bola Tinubu on becoming president-elect.
According to news reports, Nnabuike congratulated Tinubu on his victory in the 2023 presidential election and announced that the former governor of Lagos State would be sworn in on May 29.
After congratulating Tinubu, Nnabuike said in a statement on Sunday that he had been the target of death threats and that plans had been made to assassinate him.

He claimed that people who wanted to take his life had used a variety of tactics, such as employing the Department of State Service (DSS) and other security organizations, to keep him quiet.
He said: “Some persons who are annoyed that I congratulated the President-elect have set machinery in motion to take me out of the way.
“They are employing every means, including using the DSS and other security agencies to make sure that I am cajoled and silenced. What is wrong that I congratulated the President-elect? Is Ohanaeze now a political party?
“There are Igbo people in APC, PDP, and LP; and we are serving the interest of the entire Igbo regardless of their political affiliations. As I said earlier, Bola Tinubu is the President-elect and he will be inaugurated on May 29. The aggrieved parties are in court and until the petitions are decided, we all have to support Tinubu to move the country forward.
