That of Benue is the least known amongst the Igbo clans outside the South East, though their story has been shared on a few occasions on Nairaland. They're known as 'Umuezeokoha clan' of Benue state. Their situation is grave even as their Senator is the Senate President himself, David mark. More about them and their story here: https://olivernwokedi./2015/02/04/benue-igbo-development-union-biduthis-is-biafransand-they-have-abandoned-for-so-longread-more/ http://sunnewsonline.com/new/?p=56412 |
