Yorubas Are Not Our Problem—Benjamin Kalu

The Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives, Mr Benjamin Kalu, has called on Igbos to make efforts to end insecurity in the South East, stating that Yorubas are not the problem of Igbos.

The lawmaker lamented the loss suffered by the region from Mondays’ sit-at-home directive of a non-state actor like the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), saying a special study carried out in the South-east has revealed that in the last two years, the region has lost about N4 trillion to insecurity.

“In the last two years, we have lost N4 trillion due to the unrest in Southeast. This rising development has caused us a lot as we keep losing business investment to the constant sit at home.

“We will tour Igboland to bring calmness to the region. Insecurity remains a major problem in the East; the Yorubas are not our problem.

“We are our problem in the East,” he said at the annual all-markets conference in Lagos organised by Ndigboamaka Progressive Markets Association.

He said that insecurity in the South-east is discouraging investment in the region, expressing worry at this continuing trend and pleaded with the Igbos not to lay blame on any other region or other Nigerians.

Mr Kalu said the activities of criminal elements in the region were collapsing their economic growth due to a quest that “will not benefit the people both in the short term and in the long term.”

The federal lawmaker also said called for cooperation between Igbos and Yorubas, noting that they should work together to buoy the nation’s economy by working together to ensure peace and harmony between the two tribes.

“When you build 100 houses in Lagos, build at least 50 in your home. No one said migration could not be reversed. Migration can be reversed and people from Lagos can go to Igboland to buy goods.

“The constant killing, and kidnapping, among others happening in the southeast, are not helping us. We need to readjust and arrange our home. This is not our identity. Igbos are not known for violence.

“We must rise with one voice and denounce this ugly situation in our land. I’m pained that we are no longer safe in the land that our forefathers gave us.

“We now sojourn in diaspora, giving our children out in marriage in a foreign land,” Mr Kalu added.

May God heal Igboland.

So much obscene blood letting, unprecedented self hate-inflicted political and economic sabotage with so so much work to do in Igboland yet so many hate-filled and bigoted Igbo online and offline misplace their priorities by poking their noses into Yorubaland affairs/local politics and hating on the Yoruba their host , one of the 3 super majority tribes of Hausa,Yoruba and Fulani in Nigeria.

Kalu is reminding you today that the Igbo have bigger problems that need the attention of you his fellow Igbo, makes no sense to him that you waste your time and dissipate bad energy hating on the Yoruba who are already far ahead of the Igbo and making phenomenal progress instead of collaborating and learning from the Yoruba.
May God bless Nigeria for ever!

Sorry sir, you are missing the point, no Igbo person will defend Orji Kalu, okorocha or Chimaroke, we know our thieves. Our annoyance is that you don't know yours, history of the past 8 years has proven that you people support evil as long as he's your brother. We still respect Osinbajo, adesina and other honest yoruba people.

We will always hate corrupt people who have impoverished your people to come and impoverish the whole country too. This transcends politics, this is the work of God we are doing, to save the earth from wicked people.

You guys are terrible. You will intentionally hurt someone and spread propaganda when the south east complain, you all then say they have victim mentality.
Gaslighting is real. Just like when south east complain about Buhari style of leadership and how he treat them, you all will pretend as if he was doing well.

omenka:


My dear friend Anambra1stOaf would disagree. The East is hale and hearty. These absolutely nothing wrong with the East.

This man has been bitten by the Lagos Ibadan express bug, therefore he now peddles fake news.

Watch how they come for his head, threatening him with a single tenure, just as they do with Soludo, all for daring to look at them in the face and speak the truth.

We are here alright to remind you that propaganda has its limits, the south east will continue to be more peaceful than your region.

The only insecurity is happening in your head and on social media.

Don't mind them, in the end the south east were vindicated, the same buharri hurt the whole country but they will pretend things are fine while dying of hunger.

God Almighty will Bless this man's Wisdom

Simon Ekpa and his Calamity Crew are not Yoruba

You are insulting me and my integrity. You just have to tender an unreserved apology to me. I have my right to support whoever I like.
