The lead campaigner for a development paradigm shift by Ndigbo to ‘invest home’, stressed that the crying circumstances of our present must act act as a wake up call for Ndigbo to queue behind their leaders, as they lead from the front to provoke the solidarity we need, and build the desired cohesion through consensus and firm purpose.
