Enugu State chapter of the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) has expressed support for Ohanaeze Ndigbo’s endorsement of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) presidential candidate Atiku Abubakar. On this note we vehemently pledge our loyalty and unalloyed support for the leadership/Ohanaeze Ndigbo, belonging to where they belong,” NLC said. Prior to this, the endorsement of Atiku had split the Igbo communities. Before the public endorsement of Atiku, Ohaneze had said it would not engage in partisan politics. The Enugu State NLC said it remained in support of the decision of Ohaneze Ndigbo leadership to support Atiku for the general election.
