….says Southeast govs cause of problems in Igboland
Ohanaeze Youth Council has carpeted the Southeast governors for disowning the secessionist group, the Indigenous People of Biafra.
Five governors from the region had dissociated themselves from the IPOB, saying the group does not speak for Igbos.
Governor Dave Umahi, Chairman of the forum, stated this while addressing newsmen shortly after their recent meeting in Enugu State.
But reacting to this, OYC, in a statement by its Special Assistant on Media and Publicity, said the governors have been bought to be used against Igbo people.
According to the statement, the OYC National President, Comrade Igboayaka O. Igboayaka stated this while addressing a press conference on Monday.
His words: “It’s obvious that Southeast governors and stakeholders have lost sense of reality on ground as regards the quest for self-determination by many pro-Biafra groups.
“Let the world understand and know the truth that Southeast governors and stakeholders are the remote cause of any perceived violence by self-determination groups in Igboland, that is why all the self-determination groups are headed by Ndigbo, this implies that Ndigbo are in lack of credible leaders and denied of justice in Nigeria.
“The groups agitating for independence in Igboland are not just the wind but a ‘tsunami wind’ that will blow and cause Southeast governors and all the stakeholders in Igbo land to summersault beyond recognition.”
