A socio-cultural association, Ojuju Agbadufu Igala Forum, has condemned in strong term a purported meeting of Igala Cultural and Development Association, (ICDA) which is claimed to have been held against the directive of the Ata’gala.
In a statement signed on Saturday by the President of Council, Christopher Ukwenya and Clerk of Council Maji Isah both averred that,
Ojuju Agbadufu Igala Forum which is an important stakeholder in ICDA was not aware of the meeting, neither did it participate in any purported meeting to challenge the authority of the Ata gala as the cultural leader of the Igala people.
The statement noted that, the Ojuju Agbadufu Igala Forum recognizes the Caretaker Committee set up by the Ata’gala under the leadership of Surgeon Commodore Ahmed Abdullahi rtd, and calls on the committee to justify their appointment to reposition ICDA.
“Ojuju Agbadufu Igala Forum pledges support to the Electoral Committee set up by the Ata’gala to conduct election into the offices of ICDA” the statement added.
