The governors who met on Saturday in Enugu State to figure out ways of curbing the current security crisis bedeviling the region condemned all secession agitation in the country.
Chairman of the forum, David Umahi who stated this while addressing newsmen shortly after the meeting, said they believe in one Nigeria.
“We condemn in totality, the activities of violent secessionist groups in the South East and elsewhere.
We firmly proclaim that we do not support them, they do not speak for South East.
“The impression that South-East leaders are silent over some of our youths’ agitations for secession is not correct.
South-East Governors, Ohanaeze President, National Assembly members, notable leaders had come out publicly many times in the past to speak against such agitations.
“In order not to mismanage the unfortunate situation, South-East leaders have set up a committee to engage such youths to stop and allow elders speak to address such fears,” he said.

I totally go with the South East leaders, I go with one Nigeria. They should stop all these senseless agitation and pray that Buhari will be replaced by a more competent leader
ReplyDeleteYou call it 'senseless agitation'. To us the true Igbos, the agitation makes a lot of sense. Those so-called leaders don't speak for us. They only speak for themselves and their children.
DeleteYou might even be one of the unknown gunmen and we refuse to be slaves in our own land. We can't call Boko Haram, unknown gunmen, bandits and fulani herdsmen our fellow country men. For us, it's freedom or death.
See, I am core Igbo person, I don't believe in fighting an obvious lost battle. All these agitation will only make the foolish ones to lose their lives. The Biafran war was fought for three months without success. All the Igbo's fought the war with one mind nothing came out of it, is it now that majority are against the cause that we will succeed?
DeleteThey should focus this energy on improving the security situation in SE. I haven't read any success story of the security they established.
DeleteChai, this one go pain them.
ReplyDeleteOld news! Who wants the so called governor’s support? Do they speak for the Igbos? Shame on them, Nnamdi Kanu issued an order and they issued a counter order and people heeded Nnamdi Kanu’s order and ignored them. What do you expect from ndi eri ri eri? Fulani has finished this ones. Even the Supreme Court appointed governor also has mouth 🙄. Nothing wey we no go see.
ReplyDeleteAll these ones that did not witness Nigeria Civil war are spoiling for cessation. The hausas will never accept separation, so make una fashi am
Delete@Unknown, pls tell me why won't they(Hausa) accept? What are they afraid of?
Delete@Unknown, do you need the Hausa abi Fulani to achieve what you want? You guys are just afraid of them for nothing, that is the reason they are doing what they are doing. Whenever they remind you guys of the war, everybody will start shivering! They are overrated. Haven’t we cleared them from our bushes in the east? We will achieve separation peacefully. Every ethnic group will go their separate way. Even if it means the five Igbo states, we will achieve it. Just don’t worry about whether they will agree or not. By the time we are done, e go shock every body! They know they are losing the fight already, that’s why Buhari is shouting everywhere buying south east governors and whoever has a price to distract/destroy our struggle. By the time we are done with them, they will be begging for restructuring as an option instead of secession! Watch us! No fighting or war, but peaceful separation.
DeleteIf you can't beat them you join them, he who fights and runaway lives to fight next time. All these noise are making the Igbos to me more marginalized, what have we done about it. Nothing?
DeleteWhich noise? Haven't you seen what we have achieved? We have destroyed the mission of Hope Uzodinma with Fulani, the reason they appointed him. We have made your so called Buhari to stand up from his palace in Aso rock, and be granting interviews, visiting states and shouting 'unity' every day like a scared child! We have also brought him to the world scene for public scrutiny! He will keep running helter skelter, begging and shouting unity. Before now, was he not glued to Aso Rock only expressing shocks?
DeleteCorrupt men talking for their pockets. These ones are not talking for the Igbos oo! What do they even know? All they know is any where their belle face. The funny thing is that no Igbo person regard these ones as their leaders.
ReplyDeleteTHE EFFECT OF BUHARI TREATING THEM IN THE LANGUAGE THEY UNDERSTAND! NO THEY SHOULD NOT DENOUNCE THEM. THEY SHOULD CONTINUE KEEPING MUTE. YEYE DEY SMELL 😏
ReplyDelete🚶♂️🚶♂️🚶♂️🚶♂️
@Essah, Buhari fit treat anybody in any language? You are ridiculous! Buhari that cannot deal with bandits and boko haram dealing with them and slaughtering them daily over there! They wanted to try it in the east, eastern boys showed them 🌶 and drove them away. No be their arewa leaders beg us make we kuku go with our Biafra, say dey no want again! These are Buhari’s appointed governors doing his biding. Since he made that statement of treating his kinsmen in the language they understand, has he been the same again? We have put them on the high jump since then. He’s been running helter skelter! The governors have always been singing this song, but when e set, you no dey see say dem dey keep quiet? This na dia normal way na.
DeleteAnonymous, you saved me the stress of typing. Thanks a lot. Person wey want teach person in the language they will understand, how body dey am? No be the one them dey remote?
DeleteOur problem for East be say we no dey use sense dey do something and we think we are smarter than every other tribe. Biafra Nnamdi Kanu wan give us is to free criminals from jail. Now they have turned our region into a terrorist zone. Owerri that thrives on hospitality business is dead. Hunger has doubled and we still never get sense. IPOB has caused more problem for us abeg.
ReplyDeleteI curse the person wey do this to you. What evidence do you have to make us believe IPOB fred those prisoners. The governor said it was his political enemies in both APC and PDP that did it. And you are here acting like u know better.
DeleteFulani herdsmen have been killing and raping your women and daughters and IPOB is what's giving you problems. Abeg try get sense and face your real enemies. Did IPOB cause hunger? IPOB is not your shameless police and military that drive around Owerri killing and arresting innocent young boys. Just pray you don't run into them, b/c if u do, you will know who your problem is.
Onye na ekwu?. Who is talking?. What are their names?. Please Igbos don't know them. Let them face Buhari their father. We know who we listen to. We know what we want.
