NEWSKilling of ESN commander, Ikonso Don disastrous – OhanaezePublished on April 28, 2021By Emmanuel Uzodinma


The apex Igbo socio-cultural organization, Ohanaeze Ndigbo, has described the killing of a top commander of the Eastern Security Network, ESN, Ikonso Don as a disaster.

DAILY POST reports that this was contained in a statement by the Secretary-General of the organization, Mazi Okechukwu Isiguzoro.

He said the killing had made Ikonso a martyr and further worsened the tensed security situation in the Southeast zone.


Isiguzoro while questioning the circumstances surrounding the killing of the IPOB member, declared that “we have taken time to study the entire situation before issuing this statement and we feel that many questions are left unanswered.

“There are strong counter claims that Ikonso was not killed during a gun duel contrary to the statement by security agencies. And our question is: why kill a man you have taken captive? Why did they not arrest and prosecute him in a court of competent jurisdiction?

“So, we are questioning the circumstances surrounding his death. Ikonso should not have been killed. His death has huge consequences because he has been made martyr, a hero, you can even see that the IPOB said they have renamed the Imo Government House after him.

“The escalation of violence we are witnessing in the Southeast now won’t be happening if they didn’t kill him. Southeast is now at the mercy of herdsmen and unknown gunmen.”

He accused federal government forces of trying to recycle violence in the Southeast, wondering why the zone should be so militarized whereas people still moved freely in the Northeast.

“Military action is not the solution, they should withdraw troops from the roads. What the Federal government must do at the moment is to give the Southeast governors all the support they need. We are not seeing it at the moment, federal forces are rather making things difficult for them. The governors should take the lead with the Federal government supporting them.

“The Federal Government must also end all forms of marginalization of the Southeast, that’s why the youths are very angry. We have started the process of restoring peace, we are talking with all stakeholders, every party, but the Federal Government should stop aggravating matters.

He equally berated “Abuja politicians” from the zone, accusing them of keeping silent while the people were being slaughtered.

“All of them have failed Ndigbo, they have not just refused to join in search for solution but are keeping grave silence. Even those of them close to the President are not telling him the truth. They have all relaxed in Abuja while their home is burning, but they must know that if this fire is not quenched, nobody will escape,” he cautioned.

Imo Crisis: Hope Uzodinma No Longer Picks My Calls – Father Mbaka
Mbaka has disclosed that since Uzodinma assumed power, he has not answered his phone calls.

Catholic Priest and Spiritual Director of Adoration Ministry, Enugu, Rev. Fr Ejike Mbaka, has accused Imo Governor Hope Uzodinma of shunning him.

In his 2020 New Year message, the cleric had said Uzodimma of the All Progressives Congress (APC), a former senator, would be sworn in as governor.

"Despite all that would happen this 2020, there is hope. In Imo State, there is hope. Hope, hope, hope … hope in Imo State!

"Imo people have suffered (but) God is raising a new hope that would be an agent of salvation for them," he said.

Emeka Ihedioha of the People's Democratic Party (PDP) was the incumbent when Mbaka gave the prediction. Imo elders in the party dismissed the prophecy.

Weeks after, the Supreme Court, in a unanimous decision, ordered the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to issue Uzodinma a certificate of return (CoR).

Justice Kudirat Kekere-Ekun, who read the judgement, stated that the APC candidate won because he polled the majority of the lawful votes cast at the election.

Mbaka has disclosed that since Uzodinma assumed power, he has not answered his phone calls.

The clergyman also told the people that the governor was also yet to return to the church to show appreciation.

"It's not that I'm asking for money; it's that I should advise him for good governance," Mbaka said in a report by DailyPost.

Imo crisis: Security expert, politician, activist, residents blame Gov Uzodinma over killingsPublished on April 27, 2021By Adindu Obialor


Reactions have continued to trail the current security situation in Imo State with its resultant loss of lives and valuables.

DAILY POST earlier reported the attack on Sunday at the police divisional headquarters, Orji in Owerri where four motorists were shot including the State commissioner for Skills Acquisition and Entrepreneurship, Iyke Ume.

Reports also had it that at the late hours of Monday, not less than six policemen were shot dead at the Okigwe South Zonal Political command, Orieagu in Ehime-mbano LGA of Imo State, and the command razed at gunpoint.


Experts, activists, politicians and other residents of Owerri, the state capital, who spoke to our correspondent described the situation as most worrisome.

The National President of Igbo National Council Worldwide (INC), Chilos Godsent, while reacting to the situation, put the blame on the government, accusing it of handling the trend with kid’s glove.

He said that the governor, Senator Hope Uzodinma as well as other Southeast governors have sabotaged the zone over a pot of “yam porridge” by dancing to the tune of the Fulanis for one selfish interest or the other.

Hear him, “the situation here is unwarranted and alarming. Not a day that passes without the sound of a gunshot or killing.


“The unknown gunmen have gone as far as setting the state’s correctional centre and the governor’s ancestral home ablaze. All these happened within a space of two to three weeks.

“If the bandits could attack the governor’s ancestral house successfully, how much more the unarmed civilians on the streets? Something serious needs to be done and done quickly to prevent more loss of lives.”

In his reaction, the Director-General of Imo state PDP New Media, Collins Opuruzor attributed the uproar to the rising youth unemployment in the state.


He recalled that in the end of Senator Hope Uzodinma’s one year in office, the unemployment level of the state had soared to 33.3% as over 2.9million employable youths are completely out of jobs, naming the state as the ‘unemployment capital’ in the country.

He said that the governor is busy chasing shadows to the detriment of millions of Imo people whose lives are at risk.

Opuruzor added further, “the Governor should stop shifting blame to the opposition and some self-determination groups. He should stand to his feet and confront the security challenges head on. If a governor is incapable of protecting the lives of those who elected him, then he should resign honourably. Imo people will no longer tolerate this. It is becoming quite unbearable.”

A retired Army captain, David Mbamara has urged the Imo State government to thoroughly investigate the root cause of the repeated attacks in the state, rather than accusing the Indigenous Peoples of Biafra (IPOB) of being responsible for all the attacks in recent times.

The Imo-born social activist who turned out to be the founder of Fair Haven Security Nigeria Limited, further said that the governments both at the state and federal levels, have failed to address the issue of youth unemployment which, according to him, should be the greatest check against insecurity.

“When the people are gainfully employed and are provided with good welfare package, there won’t be any trace of violence. Unfortunately, the government has failed in this aspect. So, what do you expect?

“The cost of living is high. People have no jobs to fend for themselves. The people are not happy, yet the government is keeping mum over this. It is an unfortunate situation.”

Another Imo son who is a lecturer of Microbiology in Imo State University who pleaded anonymity said that the worse is yet to come if the government fails to address the issue of youth redundancy.

“Imo is a state that produces a large number of graduates annually and there are no jobs for them. Note that ten jobless graduates are ten criminals and so it goes.

“Government should provide job opportunities for the teeming unemployed youths. Until this is done, the restiveness will continue to creep like the harmattan fire.”

A cross-section of traders in Amakohia modern market, Owerri said that the situation had kept them in perpetual fear as no one knows when the enemies will strike.

A butcher in the market who also refused being mentioned, said that attack by the ‘unknown gunmen’ has become the order of the day.

He said that the fear of the unknown gunmen has kept everyone at alert even as they are marketing their wares.

“If I begin to tell you how many armed robbery and kidnapping incidents that have taken place just in Amakohia in a space of one week, you will marvel. Nobody is safe here. We are living by the grace of God.

“A few days ago, a woman was kidnapped in a nearby street and minutes after that, some robbers went to Akwakuma and dispossessed people of their belongings.

“What I’m not sure about is if we actually have a government or security agents in the state. The governor is busy chasing shadows while his people die everyday.

“This is an ugly trend that needs to be stopped immediately in order to save the lives of the people. Government should act fast and stop blaming the opposition.”

Nigeria Needs More Pantami's In Power, You’ll Regret It If He Leaves, Gumi Warns
Gumi, a Kaduna-based Islamic preacher who had consistently called for negotiations with bandits stated that Pantami was not sympathetic towards terrorists

Islamic cleric, Ahmad Gumi, has warned that Nigerians will regret it if the Minister of Communication and Digital Economy, Isa Ali Pantami is removed from office.

Nigerians had continually mounted pressure on the presidency to sack the minister while some called for his resignation following the re-emergence of his public declaration of support for terrorist groups in the past.

But Gumi, a Kaduna-based Islamic preacher who had consistently called for negotiations with bandits stated that Pantami was not sympathetic towards terrorists, Peoples Gazette reported.

Gumi, who was speaking in an interview with Roots TV said the embattled minister was rather a nation-builder who was working to attract other youths of his Ilk to support the government.

He said “Show me one person he has killed. He has not killed anybody. He has not ordered the killing of anybody. The man is stabilising a government among a section of youths which we want them to come and join in nation-building.”

Gumi also said Pantami was a victim of wicked campaigns to remove him from office.
 
“And you people are fighting them. No. You should get more people like Pantami and put them in power. Don’t remove him. You’ll regret," he warned.

I Don't think so bro...

Ipob has always been criminal armed wing of Pdpeeg.

Just as Boko Haram, fulani herdsmen and bandits are criminal armed wing of the presidency ! Pantami is the minister of terrorism and communication.
