Professor George Obiozor’s death was attributed by Ohaneze Ndigbo Worldwide’s National Vice President, Damian Okeke-Ogene, to depression brought on by the burning of his home in Imo State by rumored agitators.
In a Sunday interview, Okeke-Ogene claimed that the esteemed professor might still be alive if the incident had not taken place.
He said: “As part of the regime of the late Professor Obiozor in Ohaneze, I must apologize on behalf of Ndigbo because immediately his house was burnt down, he was totally devastated and that must have caused his death.

“This was a man who wrote a memo to the late Dr Chuba Okadigbo who was then an aide to ex-President Shehu Shagari to see the late Biafran leader, Dim Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu, to grant him pardon when he was in exile in Ivory Coast.
“So who would be more Biafra than Obiozor? And some people went to his town and set his house ablaze. That incident contributed to his death.”
The former governor of Imo State, Owelle Rochas Okorocha, is building the organization’s new headquarters in Enugu, which the Ohaneze leader also claimed is currently undergoing a change.
“He has promised that the edifice will be delivered by the end of the year, and we know he will do it,” said Okeke-Ogene.
