The ERA National President, Ejike Ikezuagu released this information yesterday, Saturday after a meeting with the various groups.

Hon. Ikezuagu upheld and praised the meeting the Igbo leaders had with Atiku and also described the hug given to Atiku by Prof. Ben Nwabueze as “touching” and requested Atiku to come to London to discuss with ERA and various groups.
