Breaking News! Abia Council of Traditional Rulers distanced themselves from Eze Ikonne's title conferment on Buhari.


The Abia council of traditional rulers had distanced themselves from Eze Ikonne for giving Gen. Buhari the title of Ogbuagu 1, in a statement by the Chairman of Abia Council of Traditional Rulers speaking on behalf of other Ezes, Eze Eberechi Dick said that Chieftaincy titles are given to deserving people who contributed to the growth and wellbeing of the Igbo nation and not to those who only remember the Igbos during electioneering periods.

They argued that In 1996, Aba Chamber of Commerce Industry Mines and Agriculture (ACCIMA) under Dr Chukwuemeka Okolo invited Gen. Buhari in his capacity as the chairman of petroleum trust fund (PTF) to come and save Aba from the terrible state it was, he refused to come or even send a representative he also declined the honour of an award ceremony which was added to the event to make him come to the rescue of Aba using his office as PTF chairman, and this was happening at a period when Aba was in a disaster state and Ama Ikonne and the entire faulks road was rendered impassable as a result of heavy flooding in front of the palace of Eze Ikonne, as at the time this was happening it was extremely difficult to access Ariaria from faulks Road.
The Ezes led by the Chairman of Abia traditional rulers council said they wonder why such a man who had shown little or no regard to the Igbo nation should be given a chieftaincy title in Igbo land they also said the chieftaincy title given to Buhari has nothing to do with Abia council of traditional rulers and that very soon the council of traditional rulers will pronounce adequate sanction for Eze Ikonne for going against the wish of the Abia council of traditional rulers and Ndi Igbo in general, according to them Buhari had always stood against the wish and interest of the Igbo man and had always segregated against the Igbo nation and at such does not deserve to be honoured in Igbo land.

The Abia Traditional Council has no choice but to accept the will of the people. Was there protest? What is their interest? Anyway Buhari have been honored and there is nothing the Abia traditional council can do about it.
Sai Buhari
