The South-East Elders Forum, SEEF, has finally reacted to the quit notice by Arewa youths on Igbos.

They warned that Igbo persons still in the northern part of the country should see themselves as taking a big gamble with their lives.

They urged them to read the handwriting on the wall and return home immediately before the October 1 deadline.

The Igbo elders group gave the warning in a statement issued by the convener of the forum, Dr Dozie Ikedife, in Nnewi, Anambra State.

According to SEEF, the strong backing to the youths’ pronouncement by Professor Ango Abdullahi, the spokesman of the Northern Elders Forum, should be seen as the tip of the iceberg of a well thought out plan.

SEEF leadership also noted that despite the order for the arrest of the originators of the quit notice and calls by other notable voices in the north for the same, none of the well-known individuals who signed the ultimatum had yet been apprehended.

“Even if they were to be arrested today, this would make no difference as plans had already been concluded to evict Igbo from the north”, the statement reads.

“The anger and mood of the youths and elders of the Arewa Consultative Forum (ACF) was because the Igbo remembered their lost relatives in the genocidal war fought against them.

“And may be, they didn’t get the opportunity to ask the law enforcement agents to massacre those who did the remembrance. This may be the anger of the Arewa youths and their elders.

“Let it be said clearly, as it goes in Igbo adage, he who uses the gun, will also go by the gun and he who uses machete, will go by the machete.

“Anybody who raises a machete or gun against an innocent person will cut and shoot himself. This ultimatum to Ndigbo is not to be taken lightly. We have digested it very well and we know the import and weight of the statement”.

On the way forward, the forum suggested that the leadership of Ohanaeze, ACF, Afenifere and the leadership of other ethnic nationalities should engage themselves in a frank talk on how to co-exist as neighbours.

It said that the present elected governors and legislators could not fashion out solution “because of obvious reasons of their political baggage”.

Finally.
Some Sense
this are our Real Elders.
Not some Ohanaeze and Massob ish

Cowards pple of Evans tribe

The fear of aboki is the beginning of wisdom.. . Tywin lanista

hmm

Following

as from 1st October any Igbo that died in North committed suicide.

Let no one say that he or she was not warned

Why can't these Ibo leaders synchronise their objectives and stop disturbing us with all these contradictory public statements?

Ibo leaders are busy holding meetings with the ag president with a view to resolving the inherent consequences of the kaduna declaration

Ibo leaders are now saying ibos must flee the north now following the kaduna declaration.

Which one una dey?

Igbos are confused.

Ipad yoots will avoid this thread like ebola

I have said my own too, they should leave the savages and return, but if the men wants to stay and protect their investments, then they must bring home their wives and children while they arm themselves and stay together!

On the way forward, the forum suggested that the leadership of Ohanaeze, ACF, Afenifere and the leadership of other ethnic nationalities should engage themselves in a frank talk on how to co-exist as neighbours.

Call your youths to order, that's the only way forward. Lack of respect for elders are not tolerated in the North and SW

“Anybody who raises a machete or gun against an innocent person will cut and shoot himself. This ultimatum to Ndigbo is not to be taken lightly. We have digested it very well and we know the import and weight of the statement”.

Why is it that these people cannot stand exactly what they do? Meanwhile, while cownu gave a shoot-at-sight orders in his speech, I can't really find where any violence was declared or implied in the so-called kaduna declaration.

Be chest-beating about the whole country and self claiming relevance.

An opportunity for them to exit the North as come, they suddenly turned it to a debate.

I was expecting them to show there self acclaimed bravery by honouring the quit notice and extending same gesture in the West but there natural cowardice won't let them.


Always bleating about them being begged for unity as if they count.

Make dem pack commot abeg, enough of self appraisal and unwarranted rants

You think Igbos are shoe shiners, mai guards and agbo sellers that have only a sack bag containing all their belongings and life investments? We are talking about billions of dollars worth of investments at stake here, so naturally it would take some time for them to relocate unlike you economic parasites that makes no contribution to the local economies you reside!

I wonder why Lord Luggard made this costly mistake...

Self appraisal!

Your lots did not put that into consideration before Nnamai Kanu started spewing trash?

Only small scale trade you know how to do, your lots don't think! Lack ability to weigh options.

Stop reasoning with your anus and say something sensible. We still stand with Nnamdi Kanu come what may! Small scale trade yet we control your commerce, little wonder why most of you guys end up as omo niles and agberos while the more lazy but ambitious ones go about mining skulls. Igbos will leave the north ultimately, and I dont think any of them will invest in the north again now that they have seen the envious barbarians they are dealing with.

Was Lord Luggard also your English teacher?

Once Buhari do not return by October 1st, it will be clear to the Almajiris that their hero is dead which will prompt them to violence once impeachment of Buhari is presented at the National Assembly.

The North has been blackmailing us because of our people and investments in their region instead of being grateful. We have had enough of their rubbish and would divest and leave for good. We would rather invest at home or if we want to invest outside we go to other ECOWAS countries that would appreciate us than the barbarian north. Middle finger for the ZOO!!!

Don't say what you want to do in a public forum. Its not wisdom. However, I support Igbos should come back, at least for now.... Your life is more preciouse....

I pray a referendum is allowed and it favours Biafra cos then will u "ONLY" know that what after 7 is greater than 6.

Take your shops to anywhere, other investors will come in. Who knew we did have multiple telecommunication companies in Nigeria 15years ago? When UTC closed down, Shoprite came in.

So u can imagine....Nigeria is a place any businessman will want to invest so forget chest-beating of taking your shops an stalls to other countries.

Please take it to South-Africa

I've not seen any part of the Northern youths statement (Oct1) deadline that promotes violence. Same way IPOB does not see any inciteful statement or threat of violence in Nnamdi KANU's hate speeches.At least, the northern youths didn't urge any one to carry arms against the Igbos.Same measure you give unto people shall be given back to you;shaken down and running over.

What I said is already public knowledge, I cant divulge classified information that could even remotely jeopardise the security of my people in the ZOO!

No, Hausa wearing "ibo clothes" is enough for now.

Ibos come back home while dey go back..Simple
