This means Igbo are about to finally gain independence in 2024

It's long overdue

Otti should do same. This should be a bigger reason to protest and shut down the SE

The Enugu State Governor, Dr Peter Mbah, has urged residents of the South-East region to disregard the sit-at-home orders of the Finland-based leader of the Autopilot, Simon Ekpa.

Mbah accused Ekpa of feeding fat on the emotions and sufferings of the Igbo people.

The governor stated this when he received members of the House of Representatives Committee on National Security and Intelligence, during an oversight working visit to the state to inspect the construction of the Department of State Services training institute at Awgu.

Mbah added that his administration was committed to ending illegal sit-at-home hitherto enforced by non-state actors that held the people hostage both psychologically and economically.

The governor said, “He (Ekpa) creates some kind of siege atmosphere and thrives on it to make a living, continuing to extort and exploit our people, who may not be aware, and telling them that he is fighting for their interest.

“How can you claim you love our people, a people known for hard work in our DNA, and sit somewhere to dictate to us when to go to work and when not to go to work? So, I want to also take this opportunity to call on our people to disregard this threat. We have demonstrated our capacity to provide security for our people and we will continue to do so through the help of our security agencies.

“We cannot be intimidated. We cannot submit ourselves to this siege atmosphere he wants to create in the South-East. We treasure our hard work as a people. So, you cannot love a people and all you do is at the very expense of their existence just to grow followership and gain cheap publicity.

“I’m also calling on the youths, not to fall for these sorts of cheap antics because this is completely antithetical to our belief system. It contradicts our values and opposes our work ethics.”

Also speaking, the Chairman of the House Committee on National Security and Intelligence, Ahmed Satomi, described Mbah as a worthy example for other states in security and good governance.

dmangodwin:
How do you know that.We're they named?

DevilsEqual:
This thread tho

HardBishop:
Then don't go and be attacking Igbo man property again

MEGAWATCH:
Hahaha hahaha!

They are really attacking and dealing with the Igbos but the re-election of Tinubu in 2027 is in the hands of the South East and South South to decide.

I don't know why south east are worrying themselves just allow them to continue their weaknesses before 2027 I will see the face thy will use to come to us.

If the North reject them and the east I wonder how they will win?

Walahi, they should limit their madness to their 5 plots of land

A coalition of human rights defenders under the aegis of Action Group on Free Civic Space has urged the Lagos State government to demonstrate impartiality by withdrawing charges against Frederick Nwajagu and releasing him after 15 months of imprisonment.

The group appealed to Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu to direct the Commissioner of Justice to enter a nolle prosequi to ensure Nwajagu’s immediate release.

This group made the call in a statement made available to Saturday PUNCH by one of its members, Okechukwu Nwanguma of Rule of Law and Accountability Advocacy Centre on Friday in Lagos.

It criticised the swift arrest and prosecution of Nwajagu while ignoring those who attacked Igbos in Lagos, suggesting ethnic bias

The coalition stressed that selective justice undermines the rule of law and fuels social strife.

Recall that Nwajagu was arrested in April 2023 for allegedly threatening to invite members of the Indigenous People of Biafra to Lagos to protect Igbo properties.

In the viral 49-second video, Nwajagu called on IPOB to protect Igbo shops and properties against these incessant violent attacks.

This is my own presido not one drug addict, certificate forger, agbero, tout, suspected killer of Funso Williams and a strange man without economy knowledge.

Dear Egbon Dele Momodu,

Haba, egbon! Please go through your Instagram posts. Your social media is virtually a shrine to Governor Adeleke. It is beneath you to deny it. This is a notorious fact!

Please, egbon, I make this an open challenge. If you have not used your social media profiles to praise Governor Adeleke at least fifty times, then take me to court! I will meet you there with documents. I am nothing if not a meticulous record keeper!

Even your own followers know this is a fact. But please, take me up on my challenge.

And what Tinubu project will I be looking for again? I live in a house that is worth almost $1 million. I bought another house worth nearly $1 million and gave it to my children through their mother in a trust. In a year, you yourself see me traveling to over 30 countries, either First Class or Business Class.

In my travels, I was received back-to-back by two consecutive British Prime Ministers, a Canadian Prime Minister and a Spanish Prime Minister. I was received in Iceland by their Minister for Tourism.

What can President Tinubu give me that I do not already have? Please make a more believable accusation.

Thanks again, and may God bless you.

Am wondering why the so called ipob leader,Nnamdi KANU has not be rearrested respited flaunting one of d bail condition,
As one of the bail condition ,he was told by the court not to be seen in a gathering of more than 10 people but as of today,he is addressing crowd and making hate speeches.
When will he be rearrested to douse the tension in the country especially the south east.

Tranquillity360:
Is your father among them?

Tranquillity360:
What of unknown gun Men in south west?

YouAreNobody:
There's nothing sweeter to my brethren from the west side than when they hear of a kidnapping or robbery or other misfortune in the SE.
They immediately say it's unknown gunmen and then blame the entire Igbo tribe.
When you ask, has there been no kidnappings in the SE and everywhere else even before the advent of ESN? They have no answer to this.

YouAreNobody:
Kidnappers, call them what they are

AnyanwuSK:
Who are IPOBidients?

Yoruba people created Amotekun to police their region with dane guns, it's a sign that Nigeria is falling aparts and the region is not secured.

We all know that Amotekun can't match the Fulani jihadist herdsmen from the Sahel who carry military grade weapons, that's why the Jànjaweed Nigerian government allowed Amotekun to be.

ISWAP/jihadists from the Sahel have taken over most of your forests but that's not a concern to you. All you care about is politics.

It's a matter of time you will realise that your Amotekun is armless and helpless like the over 4,000 farmers killed in Yoruba land, you will become enemy of the Jànjaweed controlled government once you realised and kick against it.

Nigeria is heading for destruction, only unconscious/ignorant people don't know this.

1st. The world have become more globalised than ever before and global shift is imminent. Power is tilting to the East(China) if allowed. .... won't say more on that.

Currently, the Eastern and Western powers are battling over the control of the new world order as this Age is coming to an end. ....

Nigeria has been polarised by Buhari/APC with his marginalisation & nepotism.

Meaning that Nigeria can't join the Western powers or Eastern powers or even remain neutral with this current unitary system of government.

You see the war that's being fought in Europe and middle East? They are doing press-up, the real battle will be fought in Africa because Africa is the future, when it comes to Africa, Nigeria has the highest potential of being the giant of Africa.

Now world powers wouldn't allow Nigeria to fall into the hand of their rivals because whoever control Africa will become the World's next leader.


So Nigeria will be forced to restructure or get destroyed by interested power. Imperialism is coming to an end.

Now we know who that will benefit most.
You from the South West are just roping yourself the Ottoman-Sokoto Caliphate, you will start paying back for this mistake in due time.

Nigerian politicians are puppets and don't represent the people, keep fooling yourself with Tinubu, Obi or Atiku.

So, only fools will be masturbating with the current happenings.

It's complex, religion might be involved at last.
