BUHARI : 'WE ARE SORRY, OUR ELDERS MISLED US,' NDI'GBO TELLS PRESIDENT
Buhari


'We are sorry, our elders misled us,' Ndi'gbo tells president


While Nnamdi Kanu was in court, some Ohaneze Ndi'gbo students took to the streets of Abuja to declare their 'unreserved' support for Buhari.

Ndi'gbo students declare their support for Buhari
While Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) was in court, a group of youths on the platform of Ohaneze Ndi’gbo Students Forum took to the street of Abuja to declare their 'unreserved loyalty' to the President Muhammadu Buhari-led government.
The students who trooped into Abuja from the various higher institutions in the country on Monday, March 20, 2017, endorsed the leadership style of President Buhari.

Addressing the rally at the Unity Fountain in Abuja, President of the group, Osisioma Osikenyi Igwe said the Ndi’gbos made grave mistakes in the past, but were not prepared to repeat same.

He said Ndi’gbo students and youths have come to the inevitable conclusion to embrace change collectively.


Igwe urged South easterners, particularly, MASSOB and IPOB who are 'incensed' about a Biafran Republic to 'extinguish' the idea.

His words: "We have chosen to become part of the change agents, by impressing on our people to sight the bright future Nigeria offers every ethnic nationality, most especially Igbo nation under the God-fearing and de-tribalized leader, President Muhammadu Buhari. We must bury our mundane thoughts that have tethered us to retrogressive sentiments for ages.

"We are strangely happy in the euphoria of being blinded by our foibles. When we contemplate any remedy, it is usually half-baked and poorly articulated, manifest in the frequent retreat into our cocoons, with loud gospels of separatism. These wrong approaches have failed to give us solace, heal our wounds and cement ties with our Nigerian brothers to work for the prosperity of Nigeria.

"In the years past, we have been misled and enslaved by our people, who exploited our innocence and complacency to market several unfounded and unprofitable sentiments, which poisoned our minds towards our beloved country, Nigeria. Sadly, no one can point to a single reward we’ve got from these wild adventures from our years of silence; our months of endurance and decades of antagonism.


"Over time too, we have silently watched elders of our land; our leaders indulge in excesses that have led us to wrong steps and decisions, which have disappointingly and continuously nurtured the passion of hate against us, as a race in Nigeria. It has rather expanded the frontiers of enmity between us and other ethnic nationalities in Nigeria. We cannot continue in this manner and we have taken up the challenge to also lead the path for our elders to follow because the future belongs to the youths"

"We want our Southeastern brothers and sisters to understand in unmistaken terms that Nigeria holds a lot of promise for the Igbo nation than the delusion of a non-existent Biafran state. And luckily, the hour this realisation has dawned on us has come at a time Nigeria is blessed with a good leader, President Buhari. His actions and utterances demonstrate a passion of love for every Nigerian, regardless of tribe, religion or political affiliation.

"Ndi'gbos have no better time to have a resounding deal in Nigeria, outside of the Buhari Presidency," he added.

The students apologised to President Buhari, the national leadership of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and stakeholders of the party for the embarrassment caused them by the threats of MASSOB and IPOB to disrupt the Pro-Buhari rally in Awka.

He said the students are confident that such 'misguided thoughts and utterances' would never be heard from the Southeast anymore.

There is hope.

Good to see the " Leaders of tomorrow" standing up for what is right. Those wanting to divide Nigeria via the cry of IPOB/MASSOB/BIAFRA shall know no peace too.

Good to see that Nigeria's " FEDERAL UNIVERSITIES and POLYTECHNICS" in the East are producing world class intelligent Easterners like the ones protesting ,ready to take on those wanting to break up Nigeria.

If you attended a "FEDERAL SCHOOL" in the East,where all Monies use to subsidize your cheap education was gotten from Lagos,the Niger Delta and all other parts of Nigeria,then still come on Nairaland to spew Rubbish that you are a Biafran,after Nigeria has trained you.

I leave your case to Ajamkawalolilo.

I am proud of these Eastern Students standing up for their rights.

As much as I wish this was the position of all Igbo youths, experience has thought me that rallies (especially these kinds) are usually sponsored.

Some people will buy iPhone 7 this weekend while others will only receive enough money for their internet subscription. Sad.

it takes less than 1k to mobilize yoots from that side. All ipod pay to get them on the street is a bottle of beer that costs less than #200.
Protests and issuing of ultimatum from that region are made in aba, so they're cheap and don't last.

What kind of stupid and idiotic thread is this? So a bunch of useless rented crowd that can sell their conscience just for money is now the mouth piece of Igbo people undecided what an insult .. this mischievous OP that has nothing important to do other than looking for silly news items about igbos, IPOB and PMB should just find a useful hand work. Rather than bringing up stupid topics and being both first and second to comment all because of your useless obsession about igbos and IPOB..

Look at the op of this thread. grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin

The worst Igbo hater on NL. grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin

Anyhow, i have said it before, those wishing Biafra to simply go away better wake up to reality.
Buhari himself is the best pro-Biafra President i have ever seen. Whether he did it intentionally to provoke Igbos into a premature war with Fulanis or he did it out of malice for Igbos, he has truly set the ball rolling for Nigeria's eventual breakup. The genie is finally out of the bag.

Everyday more and more Nigerians from every tribe are seriously questioning the rationale behind a country that is simply put together for the benefit of one tribe- The Fulani. At some point, these questions will prompt action to be taken. It may or may not happen under Buhari, but it will take one hell of a statesman to heal Nigeria and cage the demon Buhari has unleashed.
