Arewa Youths Apologise To Igbo Over 2017 Quit Notice by Masterclass32: 10:16am On Aug 22, 2020
Three years after a quit notice order issued to Igbo in the northern part of the country, the Arewa Youth Consultative Forum (AYCF) yesterday tendered apology to Ndigbo over their earlier eject order.

National President of the group, Alhaji Shettima Yerima tendered the apology when he led a group of Northern youth leaders on a visit to Mr Ralph Uwazuruike, leader of Movement for the Actualisation of Sovereign State of Biafra (MASSOB) and Biafran Independent Movement (BIM) in Owerri on Friday. Yerima said he came to sue for peace among the Igbo and Northerners, so that the two tribes can live in harmony any where in the country.
While explaining further on the quit notice, Yerima said the group regretted the inconveniences the order caused the Igbo living in the North during the period.

He however revealed that the intention of the quit notice was to expose corrupt Igbo leaders and not to instigate crises among the two ethnic groups. Yerima said henceforth, AYCF would protect the interest and security of the Igbo in the North.
“Some elements are working against the unity of Igbo in the North that is why we issued the quit order, but now we want to prove to the world that the two races are still together.

“I came to preach peace and unity and peaceful coexistence between the Igbo and
Northerners because we see everybody in the country as one.

“Our earlier position on Igbo in the North is regretted, we are suing for peace that will usher in peaceful coexistence and I guarantee security of Igbo in the North.

His host, Uwazuruike in his speech commended Yerima for the bold step he took to sue for peace.

He said he would ensure that Northerners are not harassed or intimidated in Imo and warned that any attack on the Northerners in Imo will be repealed.

Recall that Arewa youths had in 2017 issued a quit notice order for Igbo living in the North to vacate the area.

All we need is peace to reign in our country. Let the average citizen travel along our highways without the fear of been robbed or kidnapped. Let all farmers go to their farm without the fear if been killed by some group of people. Let those who live in villages sleep with their two eyes closed without the fear of bandits ransacking their villages. Let those IDPs go back to their home in North East without the fear of terrorist attacking them.

We will get there.

Why the apologies?
You have bigger problems in your regions and all you think of is to apologise to people who didn't even notice the yeye message.

We we're all listening to Nnamdi Kanu broadcast on the days you were busy fooling yourselves.

This "apology" from the north has hypocrisy and politics written all over it. They are trying to align with the east towards the 2023 general election. I have not seen a region and a people so greedy and selfish as the north. When it comes to power it's always about them alone.

As long as you are in one country with Northern Nigeria, forget anything about peace because there will always be people carrying AK47 there

The Kanu Nnamdi that wasn't in Nigeria then? it wasn't funny shaaay, your leaders started begging like orphans and sending emissaries to beg despite the security operatives assurance, Arewa youths gave you biafra on a platter of gold but you reject it.

These Northerners think we are all fools. They issued quit notice to remind Igbos that the North owns Nigeria. They didnt like the fact the fact that IPOB was agitating for the freedom of Igbos and they issued quit notice to stifle the agitation. They also instructed the Federal Government to declare IPOB a terrorist organisation and the government did so. The Arewa youths did not see all the armed groups in the North like ISWAP and killer herdsmen that are murdering people, all they saw is unarmed IPOB that was threatening their property called "Nigeria". It was about Master/slave relationship. The North wants to dictate to everyone how 'one Nigeria' will be

One day, Igbo land will be an independent nation and the likes of that idiot called Yerima Shettima will become irrelevant
