Former Aviation Minister, Osita Chidoka, on Saturday said Igbos would always rise above pettiness and embrace each other.
Chidoka noted that quarrels and fights among Igbos are not deep-skinned because they are a class act.
He made the remark while commenting on the turnout of Igbo sons and daughters during the burial of the late Senator Ifeanyi Ubah in Anambra State.
Ubah who died in London was buried in his hometown of Umuanuka, Otolo Nnewi in Nnewi North Local Government Area of Anambra State on Friday.
Speaking about the burial in a video he posted on X, Chidoka said: “At Ifeanyi Uba’s funeral, For everybody, a day like this will come ~ Oge Chukwu Ka nma
“I am proud of Ndi Igbo, despite….despite they all came from all corners to wish our brother farewell.
“Anambra people and politicians are a class act; our fights and quarrels are not skin deep. We always rise above pettiness to show solidarity and embrace each other over politics.
“Ndi Nnewi showed why they are the wealthiest town south of the Sahara. The business class in Nnewi stood by their brother, notwithstanding issues and disagreements. Anaedo di special.
“Always remember na anyi gbasia nika nika na uche chukwu ga eme….after all the struggles, God’s Will will be done.
“Uche, Uchu na Egwu Chukwu will prevail. It is who we are.”
