By Wisdom Nwedene

Former Governor of Imo State, Senator Rochas Okorocha has told the current Governor of the State, Hope Uzodinma that the attack on him by his aides "has opened a new but ugly chapter in Imo Politics".

According to the statement, "more than 1000 thugs, armed to teeth with knives and guns and led by Chinasa Nwaneri, governor Hope Uzodinma’s Special Adviser on Special Duties today, Sunday, Feb. 21, 2021, with the backing of armed policemen from Government House, attacked the former governor of the State and Senator representing Imo West Senatorial District, Senator Rochas Okorocha’s Convoy. They attacked and damaged all the Vehicles in his Convoy. They also attacked his personal aides."

"Senator Okorocha was with only his personal aides when the thugs unleashed the attack."

"Okorocha has the strongest political structure in the state and teaming followers in the State. If he had expected the attacked, he would not have moved with his personal aides alone."

"Okorocha has never been a violent man. This planned attack but unprovoked and unwarranted, has opened a new, but ugly chapter in the politics of the State."

"The thugs also shot Dr Uzo Anwuka who was with his inlaw, Senator Rochas Okorocha when the attackers came. "

PoliticsBREAKING!!! Biafra : UK, Israel Petitioned To Repatriate Nnamdi Kanu by Man102(op): 3:48pm On Jan 09, 2021
BREAKING!!! Biafra : UK, Israel Petitioned To Repatriate Nnamdi Kanu

A renowned group, Pan-Ohanaeze Ndigbo socio-political organisation, Coalition of South East Professionals Network in Nigeria and Diaspora (CSEPNND), has petitioned United Kingdom and Israel, through the Federal Government to repatriate Leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu, to face the law over an alleged treasonable felony, IGBERE TV reports.

CSEPNND’s National President, Prof. Madumere Chika and National Secretary, Mazi Anayo Uchemba, in a petition seen by IGBERE TV, dated January 8th, 2021, released Saturday, and addressed to President Muhammadu Buhari, noted that their decision were predicated on Kanu’s abuse of his citizenship capable of casting Nigeria in a bad light before the international community.

Chika described Kanu as a fugitive who escaped the law after being granted bail following his arrest and detention over treasonable felony and appealed to the United Kingdom and the Nation of Israel to cooperate with the Nigerian government to bring back Kanu to Nigeria to continue trial.

“We are constrained to write this open letter to the Federal Government of Nigeria through the President and Commander-In-Chief of the Armed Forces of Nigeria, Muhammadu Buhari, to immediately write the Government of the United Kingdom, requesting the extradition of our fugitive son and founder of Indigenous People of Biafra, Nnamdi Kanu, to Nigeria to continue his trial over alleged treasonable felony.

“Since Kanu escaped justice to the United Kingdom where he has another citizenship, we have watched him on some video clips he posted on the Internet where he did not only boast that he would not submit himself before the trial that was abruptly suspended due to his sudden disappearance from the country but also threatened that he would destroy our dear country.

“He has no doubt,followed the threat with a number of attacks on the country apart from the formation of a militia group which information at our disposal suggest he has armed to the teeth to fight the Nigerian Government.

“We call on the Federal Government of Nigeria being ably led by President Muhammadu Buhari to direct the Attorney General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami, whose ministry deals with all extradition issues, to immediately forward extradition request on Kanu to the UK for action,” he said.

He further called on the United Kingdom and Israel, to deny the leader of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu, the freedom of using the privilege of his foreign citizenship to incite violence against the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

“We call on both the UK and Israel not to be seen to be facilitating the inglorious activities of a fugitive in Nigeria. They can prove their opposition to the activities of Kanu by flushing him out now.

“We reiterate that we have reached a point where we expect the UK not to severe the ties that exist between it and Nigeria. We advise it to revisit its ill-advised choice of keeping a terrorist against the Nigerian state.

“Having worked and contributed effortlessly to see Nigeria at its present state, we believe that the United Kingdom and Israel would not want to see Nigeria a shattered state.

“It is in this regard that we are strongly appealing to them to assist in the extradition of Kanu, whose activities have been against the unity of Nigeria.

“As Igbo sons and daughters, we wish to inform Nigerians that Kanu is alone in his cessation project and has no reasonable person behind him,” he said.

He added that even though the South East region had not had its fair share in the one Nigeria project, adding that the pursuit of inclusive government must be channelled through appropriate lawful means.

“Though our people are highly marginalized and deserve the right for agitation, but that must be done legally and by the appropriate people not a deviant young man like Nnamdi Kanu who is out for his selfish interest.

“Kanu has disobeyed this valid court order, which has not been set aside, either by the trial court, or by the Court of Appeal.

“Kanu has always lamented the treatment of people from the South East zone by the Nigerian government and by other Nigerians. This formed the reason for his agitation for a country of his own.

“However, while Kanu has a right to legally clamour for whatever he believes in, he should also know that the Igbo Nation has recognized spokespersons in the forms of the governors, legislators and Ohaneze Ndigbo, the apex Igbo socio-cultural group. Any serious statements are supposed to come from these people after extensive consultations,” he concluded.

"It's Never Too Late To Reject The Venom", ex President Jonathan Tells Trump

Former President of Nigeria, Goodluck Ebele Jonathan, has told outgoing United States of America President, Donald Trump that it is never too late to reject the venom and inject the serum of peace.

IGBERE TV had reported that Trump's supporters moved on to besiege the Capitol — leading to unsettling scenes of chaos and violence unseen in Washington for decades.

President-Elect, Joe Biden also called on Trump to “go on national television now” to “demand an end to this siege."

Reacting over the development, Jonathan said
nobody’s political ambition is worth the blood of any citizen, in any part of the world.

He noted that as a leader, one must not just look unto one’s own interest, but the interest and the good of society.

According to him, "I have repeatedly said nobody’s political ambition is worth the blood of any citizen, in any part of the world. Absolutely nobody."

"Again, I reiterate that it is better to lose power at the cost of gaining peace, than to gain power at the price of losing the peace."

"As a leader, one must not just look unto one’s own interest, but the interest and the good of society. It is never too late to reject the venom and inject the serum of peace."

"It is necessary to state that the highest purpose of leadership is to bring people together, even those that do not share in your philosophy. And you do not need an office to do that."

"All you need to achieve that height of leadership is conscience. Let us be men of conscience at this hour."

We Are Blessed To Have Umahi As Chairman South-East Governors' Forum - Iwuanyanwu

The foremost Igbo leader, Chief Emmanuel Iwuanyanwu has commended Governor David Umahi of Ebonyi State who is also the Chairman South East Governors' Forum for his efforts at ensuring the peace and unity of the Igbo nation.

IGBERE TV reports that Chief Iwuanyanwu made the observation when he led a strong contender for the President General of Ohaneze Ndigbo, Professor George Obiozor on a consultation visit to Governor Umahi at his Uburu country home.

Chief Iwuanyanwu while appreciating Governor Umahi for the massive renewal of the Abakaliki Capital City and environs solicited the support of Ebonyi State to the candidature of Professor Obiozor whom he described as best suited for the job among his challengers.

"After rigorous evaluation, we have discovered that Professor Obiozor's qualification and pedigree is quite appealing and we are convinced that he is the right person we can give to the South East Governors' Forum and Ndigbo and we will not be disappointed, he is a very sound person, he has served Nigeria in so many capacities and he is the choice of Imo people"

The top contender, Professor George Obiozor who described Governor David Umahi as the best and brightest in the region, thanked the Ohaneze Ndigbo Imo State Chapter for choosing him as their consensus candidate and pledged to live up to expectations.

"Governor Umahi is one of our best and brightest. He is the Governor of Governors, you are an example of Igbo exceptionalism, Igbo capacity of turning difficult things into something that proved to be dividends and opportunities, I thank you, I also thank Imo Ohaneze for choosing me as their consensus candidate, Igbos today are in a difficult situation and we need maturity to solve those problems, my aim is to assemble the Igbos, all we need is to create a common course, by coming to Ebonyi State today, we know that our future is bright and that is the options for the Igbos, by the grace of God, I will never disappoint you"

Responding, the Governor of Ebonyi State and Chairman South East Governor's Forum, Engr. David Umahi lauded Chief Iwuanyanwu for his unrelenting efforts at preserving Igbo identity and galvanizing its unity.

He cautioned people of South East against unguarded utterances that are capable of igniting hostilities among brothers and other regions in the Country.

"I believe that opposition strengths our position but we can't discuss the security of South East on the pages of newspapers, after all, we are still the safest in the country, we need a revolution in character and content, we need it, Igbos were originally know for character "

Governor Umahi while debunking the allegations that President Buhari hates the Igbos insisted that the Igbos especially Ebonyi State never had it so good as under President Buhari.

"Buhari is not against the Igbo man, it is at his time that Ebonyi State is seeing development, it is from his efforts that we are building the International Airport, the Ultra-modern Teaching Hospital and he even gave us over 3 billion naira to build the Cancer Centre in that hospital, etc, so he doesn't hate the Igbos"

The Governor while calling on Chief Iwuanyanwu not to relent in the task of rebuilding the Southeast through unity declared his support and that of Ebonyi people to the election of Professor George Obiozor as President General of Ohaneze Ndigbo come January 10th, 2021.

"I will stand with Ambassador Obiozor, we want character for the Igbo people, I love anyone that loves an Igbo man."

He tasked Professor Obiozor to regenerate Igbo unity when he emerges as the President General.

Chief Emmanuel Iwuanyanwu, Chairman of Champions Newspapers was joined on the visit by notable personalities including retired Inspector General of Police, Mike Okiro and many others.

A 27-year-old businessman, Emmanuel Chukwuma Igwe, has been accused of brutalizing his baby mama, Porcia Achonu, and cutting her with a cutlass, in Owerri, Imo State.

According to the mother of two, the incident occurred on Saturday, January 2, at about 1am, shortly after they had returned from a trip to the village.


“My baby daddy’s younger sister served him food and I asked her about mine. She eyed me and hissed. So I stood up from where I was and went to her room to collect a piece of chicken, she grabbed the chicken from me and asked me if I was mad.


So we started fighting and my baby daddy came in and descended on me. He beat me up so badly that his father came out and was holding me. They locked me inside the house and said I wouldn’t go anywhere. Even when my brother came, they refused to let him in.


Later, my baby daddy asked his father to open the gate so he can leave, but instead, he went to his car and brought out a cutlass which he used to chopped me repeatedly in the presence of his father. At a point, I pretended as if I was dead so he could leave me alone. He fell for it and that was when he drove off with his car.


He’s currently on the run, but his father has been arrested,” she said.

2021: Full Text Of Gov. Umahi’s New Year Message To Ebonyians


NEW YEAR MESSAGE FROM GOVERNOR DAVID NWEZE UMAHI, FNSE, FNATE TO EBONYI PEOPLE

My good people of Ebonyi State, both at home and in diaspora, today, the first day of January 2021 marks a time of hope, optimism and fresh possibilities.

We look forward as a State to the year 2021 as the opportunity to build on the foundations we have laid together on infrastructure, Agriculture, rapid economic empowerment and human capital development.

Let me use this opportunity to convey our sincere thanks to you all for the support, co-operation as well as contributions to the development of the state since we came on board in 2015.

It is always exciting to see an old year and usher in a new one, more so, having survived the tribulations of Covid 19, the #EndSARS protests and a host of other disturbances that greeted the outgone year.

Although, 2020 has been a very difficult year, we still have reasons to thank God for life and look forward with renewed hopes for a better new year.

Despite the difficulties and challenges of 2020, we still recorded some modest achievements as a people and as a state including but not limited to containment of the coronavirus, the #EndSARS protests, completion of several major projects like the International market, the new government house, industrial clusters, 10 flyovers, the best ecumenical centre in Nigeria, the shopping mall and construction of several roads on concrete pavement, massive economic empowerment through revolving loans and a host of others.

We also strengthened the healthcare delivery system for optimal performance especially during the rage of the coronavirus. For instance, our administration recently handed over an ultra-modern accident and emergency unit to our tertiary health institution, the Alex Ekwueme Federal University Teaching Hospital for use as a mark of our commitment to the health of our people. We also offset the medical bills of all patients in all Government and private hospitals across the state during the yuletide.

More than anything else, we have worked assiduously to secure and sustain the peace, safety and security of lives and property across the state such that so far, no incidences of crime and even road accidents have been recorded in the State during this yuletide. We have also strengthened the bonds of unity with the promotion of inclusive governance, social justice and accommodation.

It is important to reiterate with gratitude that these achievements are as a result of the support and cooperation you gave to us in the last year. Together, we have worked hard towards realizing our vision for a truly peaceful, secured and prosperous Ebonyi state.

2021 will also be another busy year for us as we shall be on a fast lane to deliver some critical infrastructures such as the Ebonyi International Airport, the Olympic Stadium, the Shopping mall, the Abakaliki ring road among other landmark projects for use by Ebonyians before the end of the new year.

To this end, massive investments in education, infrastructure, qualitative healthcare and economic empowerment will remain some of our key priorities in line with our projections in the 2021 budget.

And in doing so, no part of the state will be left behind just as we shall also ensure that every person is carried along on our way to building sustainable prosperity for us and our children.

Although our challenges are great and aggravated by the prevailing economic hardship in our country, I urge you to continue to keep hope alive and embrace the New Year with courage and unity of purpose to overcome our adversaries and reap the harvest of hard work, determination and success.

Let us, therefore, continue to demonstrate the values of hard work, patriotism and integrity and strengthen our commitment to building a just, accountable and inclusive society of our dreams where no one is left behind.

Finally, I wish all Ebonyi people a happy, successful and prosperous new year, 2021.

Thank you, and may God continue to bless Ebonyi State.

His Excellency,
Engr. Chief David Nweze Umahi, FNSE, FNATE

He wrote:

“The completion of Osusu Road today sent torrents of nostalgic feelings about the plight of indigenes & residents of Osusu through my veins. The road had been derelict & forgotten! As at the last time I checked, way before the commencement of the construction of the road, plantain trees were freely flourishing on the road, commercial keke & okada riders could not ply Osusu Rd. Even waste management in that axis was not feasible because the evacuation trucks could not find thier way through. It got so bad that even EEDC had to cut off Osusu from the National Grid.

"Businesses & livelihoods ceased, life virtually came to a standstill to the extent that a whole storey building sold for just N7m compared to the price of similar buildings in surrounding areas! But today, alas, our Osusu Rd has "resurrected", and it won’t die again, at least, not soon! It might not because true to type in this regime, we were able to do an end to end drainage which we connected to the Okigwe Rd drain heading to Aba River. We then did a 10" concrete pavement with rod before we finally used 4" asphalt as wearing course!

"Investors, especially tile merchants who saw the rigorous process have since moved into the road . Congratulations ndi Osusu, another one down, many more to come", he promised!

Gridlock Along Owerri-Umuahia Road, Amachara As Sen Kalu, Commuters Stuck In Traffic

The Chief Whip of the Senate, Senator Orji Kalu, and other road users were stuck  in traffic along Owerri-Umuahia road, Amachara road, Tower, Umuahia due to poor traffic management on the ever-busy route, Igbere TV reports.

Speaking to IGBERE TV correspondent over the hardship motorists and commuters face on the popular road, a motorist, travelling from Owerri to Umuahia, Tony Eke, who had been in traffic for over eight hours, poured out his anger and frustration caused by the ugly incident, blaming Abia state government for providing traffic officials to control traffic across the state.

The passenger said, "I am travelling to Umuahia from Owerri.

" All the passengers in the bus are frustrated owing to the traffic congestion on this route.

"We have been in this traffic since 1pm and here we are at 9pm.

" We don't deserve this hardship and pain.

"We are tired of the road and not even a traffic officer is on the road to control traffic.

" Abia state government should have provided officials to control traffic especially during this festive period, when people travel to visit family, friends and associates.

"The state government must wake up and put in place the necessary machinery to ensure hitch free and free traffic flow along this axis"

 The former Governor in company of his daughter, Zina and routine of aides, were also helpless, as they were also stuck in traffic for four hours.

"...because you are the person chosen by God to make Nigeria better, do not say you are withdrawing from politics, Ndigbo will not take it, Nigeria will not take it "

Responding, Governor Umahi commended ohaneze Ndigbo for the warm sentiments.

He congratulated the outgoing National Chairman of Ohaneze Ndigbo, Chief Nnia Nwodo for working assiduously to agitate for the welfare of Ndigbo.

"He has done extremely well for Ndigbo, he is leaving a very big shoe, my prayer is for God to bring someone who will fit in."

Also, the Governor while receiving a delegation of Nigeria Labour Congress and Trade Union Congress approved the promotion of workers based on vacancies from 2021.

He, however, explained that promotions are done when there is a vacancy.

"Promotion is based on availability of vacancy. Next year we will be talking about further Agricultural empowerment and promotion based on vacancy"

He directed that compilation of vacancies in various MDAs should begin while a written examination will be a determinant for the promotion.

The leader of the delegation, Comrade Leonard Nkah extolled the Governor for an adequate welfare package for Civil servants in the State.

The Governor also received the delegation of Nigerian Law School Students who conferred on him an award as the Lion of the East for his love for the Students.

The Governor appealed to them to take their studies seriously and be good ambassadors of the State.

He later received delegations from the Traditional Rulers Council led by Eze Charles Mkpuma who is also the chairman of southeast Traditional Rulers Council, the TAs, STAs, EAs, ministries of Agriculture, Market Development, Environment and the Devine Mandate Pastors who were unanimous in their commendation of the Governor for the massive transformation of the State.

"We have come to let you know that you have not only been good to Ebonyi State alone but to the entire country because you have a good heart and you do whatever the Lord asks you to do"

The Governor commended the Church for always standing by him.

"It takes a person like you to pastor me. I remember how you made enemies even to our members during the 2015 challenges, I am very proud of Christ Embassy and Pastor Chris has been a blessing to myself, my wife and my family"

Other callers to the Governor's home were Vice Chairmen of the 13 Council areas, Association of Permanent Secretaries, Umuaneke Community, South East for Igbo Presidency come 2023 and Onicha Christian Community.

By Wisdom Nwedene, Abakaliki 


Governor David Nweze Umahi of Ebonyi State has continued his sacking spree as he on Thursday removed his Technical Assistant on Media, Godfrey Chikwere from office.


In a statement made available to IGBERE TV by Ugbala kenneth l , Ph.D, Secretary to the State Government/Coordinating Commissioner, said Chikwere was sacked in order to enhance service delivery.

According to the statement, "the affected former office holder is to hand over all Government properties in his possession to the secretary to State Government and Coordinating Commissioner before the close of work today, 3rd December 2020."

"Please, ensure strict adherence to the directive."

However, the former Technical Assistant, Godfrey Chikwere said he was sacked because he refused to Insult elders and equally discourage others from doing so on Facebook.


He, however, noted that he knew that he will soon be sacked from office.

He further thanked Governor Umahi and asked for God's blessings upon him for the opportunity to serve the State.

He said : "Thank You Your excellency for I knew this will come."

"I thank You for the Love, thank You for our jokes and Your sweet accolades towards me."

"You never hated me and I knew it."

"This removal to me shows that before I jump I must bend."

"For those that loves me, his excellency did not remove me but pressured to, he loves me and I love him."

Reasons for my removal:

1) You are too close to NASS MEMBERS ESPECIALLY Senator Ogba.

2) You refused to Insult elders and You discourage others from doing so on Facebook.

I was removed for who I am and what I stand for.

Your excellency May Your future shine brighter.
Thank You for setting me to higher ground.

To my admirers, His excellency needs our prayer and that is what I owe him.

The end shall justify the means.
I am living the standard of my upbringing and have lost absolutely nothing."
