Fear Grips Ohaneze Ndigbo Over Ultimatum To Leave North by akpanoka: 12:36pm On Jun 07, 2017
There is widespread anxiety in the South Eastern part of the country. This is sequel to an ultimatum issued a Coalition of Northern Youth Groups directing Igbos residing in the northern part of the country to leave the region within three months or face violent attacks.


Worried by the declaration, members of the Igbo Socio-Cultural organization, Ohaneze Ndigbo have called on the Department of State Services (DSS) and other security agencies to urgently wade into the matter and stop possible violent expulsion of the Igbos from the North. In a statement issued by the Deputy Publicity Secretary of the group, Chucks Ibegbu, the group described the call as treasonable and intended to incite one section of the country against another.


The statement reads in part “The DSS, the police and other security agencies should take note of the statement by the Arewa Youth Consultative Forum and the other Northern groups for issuing this threat against the Igbo. It should not be seen as an empty threat; urgent action is needed to foil the plan to attack the Igbo in the North. It happened in the past and we don’t want it to happen again."


The statement further added that the character that issued the ultimatum "should be arrested by the DSS immediately. We are watching to see what the DSS would do in this situation. Yerima Shettima’s statement is treasonable; he is inciting one section of the country against another section and we know from experience that this sort of thing could lead to a civil war. His utterances could destroy this country.”



Vigil360 had earlier reported that a coalition of frontline Northern youth organisations, issued an ultimatum (See: SECESSION: North Hands Igbos Ultimatum To Leave Region) which will elapse on 1st Oct, 2017 to all Igbos’ to leave the region as they will begin ‘visible actions’ to prove they are no longer part of the federation.

Fear of what? Being asked to go home? There are more important things to worry about

Forget anything these boastful Igbo says on NL, the declaration caught them unaware and napping.
They' don't seems to want Biafra again but how to ensure that the threat of Oct 1 doesn't consume them in the north.
I have a feeling that the Biafra noise will die down in a couple of days

The north too should leave the south. You can't tell people to leave while your brothers stay in the south.

The mistakes the igbos always make is that they forget they are more in other regions than even in the SE. That's where I always had a problem with kanu whom then was inciting violence and hatred then. If kanu was smart, he should have gotten support from all the necessary quarters before shouting and issuing threats.
However, the north is also making similar mistakes as they have a lot of their people everywhere in other regions whom are constituting nuisance too.
When everyone packs back to their abode, they will have more to loose at the end.
