The World Igbo Congress, WIC, has expressed worry over Governor Hope Uzodinma of Imo state’s hatred for the Eastern Security Network, ESN, that the group said has been helping to checkmate the menance of killer headsmen the south east zone.

WIC said it was confused on Uzodinma’s action given his Zamfara state counterpart’s visit and dialogue with bandits that have been killing innocent people in the Northern region unlike the ESN that protects lives of Ndigbo.

In a statement, on Thursday, WIC spokesman, Hon Basil Onwukwe said the group condemned the recent military attack in Orlu Imo state that claimed the lives of innocent citizens and members of Eastern Security Network.

“It’s unfortunate to watch Governor Hope Uzodinma admit ordering the military airstrikes on Imo youths who were volunteering to monitor against the killing and raping by Fulani Herdsmen.

“The Governor of Zamfara recently visited and openly took a photo with hordes of bandits and militants in his area. The other Northern leaders have made numerous ransom payments to kidnappers, including redemption offers and conversion into the national security apparatus.

“The federal government has been encouraging Governor Hope Uzodima to govern by intimidation and vindictive-destructive mission against Igbo youths.

“What exactly has the ESN done that makes them terrorists or criminals that the Nigerian military has turned Orlu into a war zone? The killing of Imo State indigenes and ESN volunteers that withstood killer herdsmen is unwarranted,” WIC said.

The group noted that it was a height of irony that whereas President Muhammadu Buhari’s defense minister recently admonished Nigerians to stand their ground and face bandits and killer herdsmen, the same Buhari administration permitted the use of helicopter, gunships and artillery against her citizen as requested by Governor Hope Uzodinma to kill the people working to stop the killers.

“Word Igbo Congress is therefore calling on the international community to investigate the heinous act perpetrated by the Governor of Imo state, the rationale that brought the Governor into power from a distant fourth position, and as a matter of urgency place movement restriction on the government officials involved,” WIC suggested.

Ugochi, mama China. #Gifted.

And our worthless govt have refused to do anything about this Fulani menace which has gone on for yrs.

Yet, they were quick to bomb imo forests looking to crush a group of people that resorted to self-help due to govt's failure to protect lives and properties.

This obvious conspiracy against the Igbos and the East will not last forever. It WILL crumble someday. Soon.

This people are without conscience.

Claiming victims when they know they are the aggressors, with an agenda to take over people's lands.

Having to share a country with them seems like a curse.

Let's just restructure or break up outrightly. The one Nigeria as we have it today does nobody any good.

canalily:
what is wrong with this country does it mean cow is now more valuable than human lives who is doing this to us

The people in power have their priorities.

For them to look the other way when humans are massacred, but spring into action when a cow is killed says it all. To them, a cow's life has more weight than that of a human.

They're definitely walking alone now.

Useless country, where terrorists are 'forgiven' and rewarded while the army (that have failed to protect the people) are sent to bomb citizens that mobilize to protect themselves against the same terrorists.

Nigeria has not made any serious headway under this govt despite all the worthless talk of 'change' and 'next level'.

But where is Amotekun in all of this?

Uzodimma playing to the gallery.

U supposedly invited the army and they immediately swooped into action. But people have severally called the same military prior to and during Fulani terrorists attacks and they never showed up till today.

Be talking nonsense.

The mindset of the people we share the country with. Smh.

Breaking up this country seems the best option. Other than that, quasi autonomy for the regions.

Of course, we need unity. We must speak with one voice in demanding the dissolution of Nigeria, or at least, the restructuring of the country based on regions.

After that, each region is perfectly okay managing themselves.

Hope our local herdsmen/terrorists will learn a thing or two from this. There are mordern, more effective ways of doing these things.

If we can't break up outrightly, then let us all fight for true federalism/strict regionalism.

Oil and water don't mix.

Looks like they're walking alone now.

But, Klopp will get things back on track.

It must face the full weight of the law.

This is hyper unfortunate.

Nigeria must never tow this path.

Last time illegal arms were mopped up, Fulani herdsmen were seen moving around with their AK's in broad daylight and the police did nothing to stop them.

Let's hope the order is sincere this time.

Some people want to destroy the institution of marriage so as to create a chaotic society, complete with shattered marriages and maladjusted children, who are susceptible to crime and other vices.

One of the means of achieving that is to pit women against men, in the name of feminism, diguising it as fighting for the rights and privileges of women.

Many women have fallen for this. Currently there seems to be a competitive, rather than a cooperative stance between the genders.

As long as Nengi likes him and his 'simphood', e no concern anybody.

The puppet, Biden, hit the ground running. He has no choice.

Biden must do the bidding of his masters.

There is one G.O.A.T.: Messi.

Then, there are other goats.

This is what they meant by 'Next Level', - taking corruption and nepositism to heights never seen before.

Innoson is doing great. More power.

The show is just starting. Would be nice to stockpile enough popcorn.

Next Level things till 2023.

Wickedfacts:
The Army sent an Onyebushi for this job. Why didn't they send an Abdullahi or a Mohammed or Adamu.

Divide and rule. The imperialists know exactly what they're doing.

Trump Odogwu.

People encourage that guy's foolishness by giving him attention.

(clears throat)

Maybe, the male actors don't like cars and buildings.

The same police didn't speak up all these yrs the Fulani herdsmen have been terrorizing host communities just becos their patron was in power. Now people are beginning to take measures to protect themselves (since the same police failed them), the police suddenly finds their voice and strength against the people.

Deputy Goat, I hail o.
