Where Was Mbah, Governor Of Enugu When Ekpa Boys Were Enforcing Sit At Home? by jmoore(op): 8:32am On Jul 06, 2023
The government of Enugu state threatened schools, traders, banks that they will be shutdown if they obey the 1 week sit at home.

Simon Ekpa disciples were seen brutalizing residents, students, traders who went out this week in few locations.

A poorly funded 11th grade terrorist group of Simon Ekpa was having a field day while state government and Federal government with billions of naira, police and army at their disposal were idle as these foolish deranged terrorists were brutalizing school kids.


When I said this issue is beyond threatening people to DISOBEY sit at home, some people thought I was supporting the sit at home. I was only concerned about the lives of innocent people that will be used to play games by both the inept government that can't protect them and the foolish terrorists.


Now that this scenario has played in our own eyes, will you blame any resident that chooses to sit at home in order to be safe?

You told people to come out, they came out and you can't protect them. Is that not stupidity?

I think the schools, markets that were targeted should sue Mba and the Enugu state government for trying to lead them into a suicide mission.

The governors in the east are abuja errand boys. Simple, government that cannot secure lives of the people is a failed government
Re: Where Was Mbah, Governor Of Enugu When Ekpa Boys Were Enforcing Sit At Home? by Parachoco:
The Governor of Enugu should be held liable and should pay for the damage goods.

The Enugu State Government had no plan to protect every inch of Enugu state but they were threatening to close down businesses that fail to open.

Thank God for Wike who crushed UGM/IPOB in Rivers State

They dare not bring their madness from the South East to Rivers again

They were totally crushed

I can still remember the way Igbos were accusing Wike of commiting Genocide when he was dealing decisively with UGM/IPOB.

Is Gov Mba the President of Nigeria? He doesn't control the Security Agencies, the president does.

This is a threat that Sikon Ekpa made since last week and there is no mechanism put in place by the Security Forces to checkmate him.

Mr man. Abia State is more peaceful than Rivers State. Did Okezie Ikpeazu kill to checkmate IPOB?

Abia State is not more peaceful than Rivers State. Ask your Igbo brothers living in Rivers State, they live here in Large numbers. No group fit lock people indoor over here for one day or one week

IPOB sit at home order is fully complied with in almost every part of Abia State too.

IPOB is a terrorist group who kill people and destroy properties unnecessarily

They got what they deserve in Rivers, and today, IPOB no fit carry their madness com Rivers again

Why do you always support killing innocent civilians? Is that the appropriate rules of engagement you want the country's military to adopt?

There is relative peace in Abia State because the Military there adopted professional approach hence nobody is being killed or harassed and likewise the civilian population can protest with IPOB flags without being shot.

Peace begat peace.

When they deploy soldiers to the yeast, you will be the first on the line to scream that they should relocate them to Sambisa.

I will advise the Nigerian govt to wash their hands off the SE.

You guys cheered the killings of security officers in your yeast even abducting, torturing , raping and brutally murdering female Ibo security personnel and an officer. Did any of you condemn the barbaric killings of the Army couple or the dehumanising display of an abducted female army officer who was kidnapped in Okigwe axis and filmed stark naked ?

Pls do not ever blame the Nigerian security outfits whom you in particular has been falsely accusing on this forum of killing thousands of innocent Ibos each month.


It's now your problem and nobody's else.

We will just sit back and watch you do your self genocidal culling.

Come on, will you keep quiet. You know nothing about what goes on in Abia State on Mondays and how the citizens handle the situation.

Peace begat peace. Confrontation leads to quarrel on both sides.

Why did the governor issue threats to shutdown schools? If he knows he can't provide security, he should have closed his mouth.

I don't blame him. He went to Aso Rock and begged President Tinubu to allow Kanu to breathe fresh air but his call fell on deaf ears.

Maybe, President Tinubu told him to issue the threat and to watch the outcome. We can't always know what happens behind closed doors.

The army crushed IPOB/UGM. They were claiming Oyigbo is Igbo Land, they started holding meeting and constituting nuisance in Oyigbo. The Governor of Rivers State quickly had to put them were they belong.

Only IPOB/UGM were dealt with in Oyigbo, today, IPOB/UGM no fit show face at all in Oyigbo and Oyigbo is peaceful.

If not for Wike Quick Action, people in Oyigbo would have being observing Monday sit at home

I read somewhere sometime back that Woke even wanted some Ibo areas in Rivers to be removed from Rivers and lumped back to the SE .


Wike said as long as IPOB had sympathisers among the local Ibo population, IPOB will forever have a foothold in Rivers.

When all attempts to get the leaders of these Ibo communities in Rivers failed, Wike applied the hammer on them and since that day not one single Okoro IPOB bingo dare stray into Rivers.

The idiot you are quoting and replying to has been all over this forum shouting genocide by Nigerian forces on so-called innocent Ibos and even called for Wike's head.

The foolish OP of this thread is blaming the Enugu governor not having control of the military and security forces. Abeg , which power did Wike use to deploy troops to sanitize Oyigbo of its IPOB nuisance ?

This is not about Mba and Ekpa. We the people rejected Ekpa 7 days sit at home long ago and also rejected Mbah's order to end Monday sit at home. Markets and schools are open today in Enugu state, infact they reopened yesterday after the enforcers fled. The masses have decided, Mba and Ekpa are powerless. We the masses have all the power to decide everything

Wike crushed minorities in oyigbo is now a big achievement? So how do you expect Mba to crush an overwhelming majority. Why didn't Rivers State crush millitants in those days which was a maistream agitation of Niger Delta? Why didn't millitants attack any pipeline in Abia and Imo those days. Did Abia and Imo not flush out millitants easily while it flourish deeper in Niger Delta? Are herdsmen not easily flushed out in the east while they have a field day in north central?? Use your brain to analyze peculiarities of regional challenges

Minorities ?

You mean Trojan horse .

So you now agree that IPOB and their armed wing enjoy widespread support.

So what do you expect from Nigerian govt ?

Look, I want you to get your Biafra and I thank God many prominent people are seeing reason to this.

There is no going back or running from this your Biafra .

There are so many jobless folks in Nigeria. If you have a job that pays you 300k - 1 million per month, tell me why you will want to join unknown gunmen to intimidate innocent citizens.

It's even funny that those illiterates left Abuja where Nnamdi Kanu is to go about their normal business and start intimidating the South East. If the federal government decides to intervene in this issue, they will militarize the region. This doesn't always end well.

Militarize which region? Gone are the days when that happened and it happened because the agitators were not armed and the Nigerian Military was using them for shooting practice.

Now it is Arm for Arm and guess what you can come to my land and win me In a guerilla warfare, na you go tire one day call for peace.

You people will be online ranting, but you know nothing about how Nigerian military operates.

Non-state actors cannot overpower Nigerian military. If they do, it means the locals are working with them. If the locals are working with them, the military will go into that community and burn down every single house.

Ask Odi, Zakibiam or Izombe people; they understand this better than anyone else. At the end of the day, who now becomes the loser?

So you now you are supporting massacring of citizens in a quest to find those fighting the military?

Such a statement coming from a supposed smartpolician tells a lot about the state of the country, a country that commits crimes of kidnapping is there anything new they can't do...

Oya tell the soldiers to burn down the entire Igboland biko.

Let them burn it down
