JUST IN!!! Commercial Transport Operators Boycott Ebonyi After Alleged Attacks By Govt

Commercial transport operators across Nigeria have resolved to withdraw their services from all parts of Ebonyi State, beginning on Thursday, October 07, 2021, Igbere TV has learnt.

National chairman of the Association of Mass Transit Operators (AMTO) Chief Gregory Inyaba who made the declaration in Enugu today, on Wednesday said the blacklisting of Ebonyi State followed unprovoked attacks since Tuesday on staff and facilities, particularly vehicles of members by cultists and thugs engaged by the Ebonyi State Government officials.

Several staff of transport companies in the state capital have been decapitated and numerous vehicles damaged, some beyond repair, since attacks by government approved thugs began the onslaught against transporters on Tuesday.

The AMTO national President, Chief Inyaba, said the attacks were unprovoked, unwarranted and amounted to open hostility to business and investment, hence the boycott.

He said members of Public Transport Owner Association of Nigeria, were also part of the boycott decision.

He spoke at the end of an emergency meeting of the AMTO executive at the national headquarters of the organisation in Enugu State Capital, on Wednesday.

“From tomorrow, Thursday, October 7, 2021, no commercial vehicle, shall go to Ebonyi or leave the state”, he declared.

“The government of Ebonyi State has asked us to leave the state and we have no choice but leave the state for them henceforth” he said.

Vehicles belonging to members, with passengers, from other states were similarly attacked on Wednesday, a development Chief Inyaba said made the state a dangerous, a hostile ground to commercial vehicles and operators.

“How can you attack vehicles coming into Ebonyi with passengers from other states?” he queried. “It means we can’t bring in people in safety and comfort, and that is declaration of hostility”. He added.

The AMTO President directed members of all transport unions in other states of the country to note the directive to boycott Ebonyi State from Thursday, and comply accordingly.

“Do not load passengers from anywhere to Ebonyi State, and members who are inside Ebonyi State must not load passengers out of the state, no matter the circumstances,” he restated.

The union condemned the attempt by the Ebonyi State Commissioner for Transport to force their members to abandon their well developed premises/depots within the state capital and move to a virgin farmland in the outskirts, without first developing the premises.

Attacks on commercial buses in Abakaliki, the Ebonyi state capital intensified today (Wednesday) as armed thugs working for the state government smashed up additional vehicles in apparent determination to force operators out of the capital territory vicinity.

Mass transit owners and businesses in the state capital have been under seige since Tuesday when Commissioner for transportation Onyebuchi Nwebonyi led daredevil thugs round the Abakaliki township, smashing up vehicles, and forcefully sealing up private car parks, in a move that caught operators off grand.

The week earlier, he had ordered owners of transport business to move to the undeveloped premises on Ikom Road, very far from Abakaliki, an order allegedly sanctioned by the state government.

Talks about the relocation had been muted and seemingly farfetched, because the proposed site remained a virgin farmland, fully covered with grass and seasonal un-harvested crops.

Each operator had paid various amount of money ranging from N1 million Naira to N4 million Naira for spaces in the proposed new park, but no development had begun there, making the sudden quit notice out of the capital city, inexplicable, according to the operators.

The attacks by the government thugs on operators on premises and facilities of operators at Abakaliki which began on Tuesday continued today (Wednesday) as more buses belonging to operators were vandalized by the rampaging thugs.

Almost all operators had had many buses smashed up since Tuesday. PMT was worst hit, had eight vehicles damaged on the first day, and two today.

Ebonyi State chairman of the Association of Mass Transit Operators (AMTO) Fred Nwogbaga said a scheduled meeting of the state Exco members with commissioner, Eze Nwachukwu Eze, ended abruptly when the commissioner excused himself and promised to return. He never did, he said.

“We shall continue to seek to engage the state government to end their brigandage” he promised. “It is so painful to willfully destroy the investment of law abiding entities, without justification”.

Nigeria is already gone to the rags.
Just imagine Governor approving tugs to take DECESIVE ACTIONS on motorists?
Same is still going on rampage in Abia capital.
Sometimes, I wonder the kind Governors God cursed us or taunted us with!

Am still searching for fantasy

If in Enugu, you will say na your sister took off.

Bros you don cast we know you.

Government can be very stupid and foolish at times. What happened to developing the place first and attracting the transporters there after? Everything no be by agbero agbero attitude! The transporters even showed good will by paying before development, yet government chop the money clean mouth.

State governors empowering thugs against her citizens demands explanations

Reliable Vital Information:

The ongoing military operation named #OperationGoldenDawn is meant for:
1. To kill every young youths in Biafra land in their bid to stop #IPOB.
2. To enforce #APC into power in Anambra State and Ebonyi State
3. To give terrorists cover while invading South.
4.The Nigerian secret police may be part of the unknown gunmen wreaking havoc in the region


The Human Rights Writers Association of Nigeria, HURIWA has called on Southeastern Governors to investigate the activities of the Department of State Services, DSS in the region over the alleged killing of residents.

The rights group stated this while reacting to reports making the rounds that a DSS operative was gunned down by a police officer who was confronting unknown gunmen in Imo State on Tuesday.

The Southeast Governors ( Emir / warrant chief Governor's) want to clamp down on any members of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB who is found enforcing the sit-at-home order in the region,

This Emir Governor's; the so call Igbo political leaders are busy chasing shadows ;and failing to take deep measures to check the expanding frontiers of coordinated attacks against residents of South East of Nigeria”.

pragmatic measures are required to bring to an end the rising security challenges currently ravaging the entire region and other parts of the country.

Ndigbo indigenes are more compelled to express resounding disappointment; and shock at the clear absence of any pragmatic approaches by Igbo leaders and Governors but instead most of the decisions reached on Tuesday in Enugu are cosmetic, unrealistic and utopian.

“Wishing that there should be an end to sit-at-home order which has been violently enforced in spite of the denial of responsibility for issuing the order by the proscribed Indigenous Peoples of Biafra (IPOB) shows that these so-called political, religious and cultural leaders are living in the World of Utopia.


“The most pragmatic approach is to negotiate an end to the tagging of IPOB as a terrorist group, instituting of constructive back-channel dialogues with the detained leader of IPOB Mazi Nnamdi Kanu and his members, consider conditional release from the incarceration of all prisoners of conscience belonging to IPOB including their leader and for government to realistically investigate the possibility that Miyetti Allah may have a hand in the activities of the so-called unknown gunmen”.

Please indigenous Nigerians
Stay well informed
Protect yourself
Cut out the propaganda's
Be wise

Simply relocate to the ultra modern motor park located opposite the int'l mkt. along the Enugu/AKL exp.
U can't scatter ur motor parks in all nooks and cranies of the capital city against the master plan of the capital city dev authority.
Abakaliki is a state capital city, not your regular town.

You guys said more than this prior to the 2015 general elections....nothing will happen. 2023 will come and go so stop raising false alarm that spreads panic.

This should be extended to Imo state where the government owned thugs that called themselves (Entraco, OCDA, NURTW) taskforce harass, intimidate and exploit commercial drivers of trucks, buses and even private drivers.
