IPOB Must apologies to Igbo people for its mistake and naughtiness and initially ordering sit-at-home in South-East - Ohanaeze Ndigbo
The Ohanaeze Ndigbo has advised the leadership of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) to tender an apology to the residents of the South-East for initially issuing a sit-at-home order in the region.
The pan-Igbo group said this in a statement issued by Okechukwu Isiguzoro, the Secretary-General of the group, on Sunday, February 13.
According to the statement, even though IPOB has denied several times that its members are not the ones enforcing the sit-at-home order, there is a need to offer a public apology to residents who have been affected by this.
Ohanaeze is of the opinion that if IPOB had not initially ordered a sit-at-home in the South-East, criminals would not be taking advantage of the order after it had been called off.
The group also said that senators and some other South-East politicians who are trying to absolve IPOB of any blame for the sit-at-home declaration that has since taken a dangerous turn are doing so because of their “ambitions in 2023, not for the benefit of the people”.
The statement reads “Ohanaeze Ndigbo worldwide has to call on the South-East governors to search for lasting solutions to the cessation and termination of the IPOB’s sit-at-home since they now blame the delinquents and criminals for hijacking the exercise of sit-at-home since it’s obvious that men of the underworld have taken advantage of IPOB’s miscalculations to unleash terrorist raids and onslaughts against Ndigbo.
Drastic measures are needed to arrest this shameless activity that has paralysed the academic, economic and social activities in the South-East, the governors should know that posterity will be unkind and unfair to them if they concede to circumstances of sit-at-home and don’t confront the hyper-dreaded monster called IPOB’s sit-at-home squarely.
No Igbo governor or senator deserves to seek election in 2023 if they lack the balls to stamp out the disgraceful activities that have ridiculed southeastern Nigerians, who are known as the best black entrepreneurs and business merchants across the globe.”
