They said it wasn't a burglary, what type of weapons were d culprits carrying that makes them feel it was actually an assassination attempt?. They are now calling for rehabilitation of Airport nd completion of Bridge, when it's finally done, nobody will hear thank you, but reminding men of how GEJ or PDP started it, initiated it... As if they were not around to influence those who initiated the project to complete it.

So they should be thanking people (gov.) for doing there job?

Ekweremadu should go on and release the video of what happened, to shame this incompetent Idris of a police.
What is a burglar looking for in a high class citizen's place, a place with water tight security.
Infact he should change his security details ASAP. BUHARI AND HIS BROTHERS can't be trusted.Nigeria will boil if any high class politician from any region is assassinated.

So its ur house that a burglar should come?

agwom:
South East Governors Forum (SEGF) has rejected the police report which indicated that the security incident at the residence of the Deputy Senate President, Ike Ekweremadu, was a burglary and not an assassination attempt.

The governors made this known on Wednesday through the Director General of the SEGF, Prof. Simon Uchenna Ortuanya who addressed a press conference in Enugu.


“The forum calls on the Police and other security agencies to undertake thorough investigation and bring the culprits to book. We reject the hasty conclusion that the attack was a case of burglary, otherwise, the so-called “’burglars’’ would not have insisted on the Deputy President’s son taking them to his father’s bedroom. The careful and methodical execution of the plot points to something more sinister than burglary,” he said.

While condemning “the attempted assassination of His Excellency, Senator Ike Eweremadu,” he said “his attempted assassination, no doubt, casts a dark shadow on the state of security of lives and property in Nigeria.”


Also, the governors berated the federal government for abandoning the Akanu Ibiam International Airport, Enugu and the second Niger Bridge projects.

“We want to use this opportunity to once again call on the Federal Government to come to the aid of the South East and deal with the infrastructural decay at Akanu Ibiam International Airport, Enugu.

“We restate that the airport is not safe as there are no runway lights, the tarmac is bumpy with potholes, while one of the buildings destroyed by storm for over two years has become an eyesore. The cargo section of the Akanu Ibiam International Airport is not functional.

“It is, indeed, a shame that a whole region as economically robust as South East does not have an airport that can land all categories of aircraft. The Federal Government should please come to our aid by making the airport more functional.

“We are aware that the Governor of Enugu State His Excellency Rt. Hon. Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi has taken up the challenge of helping to fix Akanu Ibiam International Airport, but we know also that the burden is too heavy for a state government. That is why we are calling on the Federal Government to come to our aid.

“We also want to use this opportunity to appeal to the Federal Government to take the issue of Second Niger Bridge seriously. The Niger Bridge is arguably the gateway to the Eastern part of this country with business hubs of Onitsha, Nnewi and Aba, amongst others.

“We note with concern that the second Niger Bridge has become a political chess board in the hands of politicians seeking Igbo votes.

“We have become aware that it was only in July, 2018, that the contract for the second Niger Bridge project was signed, in spite of the fact that the first foundation laying ceremony was undertaken in 2013. We pray that this will not be another lip-service to the realization of second Niger Bridge.

“We earnestly appeal to the Federal Government to assist the South East region by ensuring that the second Niger Bridge is completed,” he said.

I will wait to hear ohamadike broadcast on radio biafra before i comment on this lamentation. I believe Kanu would love that Niger bridge and even the airport are completed from ipob treasury, not zoo money.

I use to live in that Estate where Ekweremadu lives and I know that place very well.It is not possible from an outsider to gain access easily to that place without an insider.I know one of his key staff way back.Whenever we want to go clubbing with him then we are not even allowed to go into the compound.Btw David Mark's son Tunde Mark lives opposite that house and David Mark also live just at the beginning of the street and their houses are all well guarded as at the last time I know so I believe there is something the police isn't telling us.

Igbo's I think they are there own devil sad abt the Airport, wen there daughters were Aviation Ministers (kema chikwe(Imo) and stella oduah(Anambra) wetin dem do?nw u wnt someone frm another zone 2 fix it. I think dat will be the least of there problems cool
funny enough the only development currently in that airport was done by stella oduah.

If u dont maintain something...it will decay...a solid cargo section was built by her and is about 85% complete by 2015...pmb has refused to complete it. She refurbished the airport since 2013...a storm that occured in 2016 brought down a part of the reception (the storm was very heavy and brought down buildings) yet 2 yrs later nothing has been done. Even common pot holes on runways buhari refused to fix...now ugwuanyi is fixing them...yet fg takes all the revenues generated by the airport.
Igbos are not their worst enemies anymore than yoruba are yoruba enemy or hausa are hausa enemy. Repeating a lie wont make it so. U guys forced oduah out of aviation ministry cos u said she had an igbo agenda...now you are re-writing history again...sad

it was a careful murder plan, planned by the APC and the Zoo Securities.
The useless Police can never arrest and parade the men sent to do the ugly job.

Many of us are threatened on daily basis by armed robbers, thugs, agberos,pick pocket, Fulani herdsmen,SARS,ANTI CULT, etc yet nobody raised a voice in our defence.


Is his life more precious than those who die daily from hunger, road accident, lack of access to quality medical facilities, Fulani and ethnic attackers, book haram, and the rest?


I pity none of those who cause our misery........ Ike should go to hell

They will not hold meetings as to how to develope their regions. They will only hold meetings how to inflate contracts meant for the region, use their proxies to collect the projects and monies meant and thereafter share the monies.
They will later come out and say the FG is marginalizing them.
The SE is the most homogeneous tribe that marginalize themselves.
The DSP cannot claim to have a CCTV recording and informing Nigerians that he will release it
How many security detail does he have and where were they when this incident occurred?
If he so called managed to fight with the assassin's and over powered them, how were they able to leave the vicinity of that estate without any apprehension by any other person?

I am more concerned with the 2nd part of the report...Nigeria has been extreemly unfair to igbos
And am talking of both pdp and apc....both obj, gej and pmb.

So the 2nd niger bridge which became necessarry since the 80s is still being denied the east? Yet lagos mainland alone has 3 bridges...with a 4th one being considered...

So the se is the only zone without an international airport...and somehow the rest of the country is ok with it...the thing is that nigeria will never truly develope...unless they carry the east along...u all can bet on that...and as i said..its not about pdp vs apc...its about igbos vs the rest of nigeria


Oga stop saying nonsense your South East governors And ministers are corrupt... Awka onitsha express way is yet to be constructed for over 20 yrs... Yet billions are located to the project yearly, If those thieves want to travel by road they ply Awka old road which is good and make use of convoy causing huge traffic for commueters... Your igbo Brothers are not representing you guys well... Instead of you to go after them.. You blame the Federal government... Those men fill the gullible once that the government is enemy... Blaming thier incompetence on religion, ethnicity, tribalism etc... David mark was senate president for 8 yrs what did he do in benue state? And tomorrow I'll blame it on federal govt. What about ken Nnami he was senate president for Years but couldn't initiate the onitsha Awka express way which is one of the worst roads... These men don't represent you and I just thier stomach alone... If they can denial the poor education they'll do it they hate us... I bleed when our so called youths support them... Imagine what one of your South East governor said yesterday that the 30k minimum Wage will cause inflation... Use your head.

first of all...u lack basic understanding of governance...therefore there is absolutely no way we can argue on any issue.

The legislature makes laws...they dont build projects and they dont inplement the laws they make...that is the job of the executive. Legislators in nigeria only get constituency project allowance which is basically less than a 100 million per year for each member...some good ones use the money to build small projects and gv scholarships...the rest pocket the money...are u now saying they should use the small money they get to build federal highways?? Or airports or 2nd niger bridge?? Hw old are u? And where do u come from...i want to knw hw many highways the senators representing ur areas have built...u guys are very wicked...turning truth upside down to pain a picture of igbos hating themselves...when all evidence point to the fact that igbos love themselves much more than other groups...u say we are clannish in one breath and say we hate ourselves in another breath...pls stick to one narrative.

We know wat our state govs can do..with the little they get...we also knw issues that are purely federal govts responsibility...the issues mentioned in my post are purely the president's reponsibility...therefore i entirely hold buhari responsible for the niger bridge and the enugu internationa airport and the high ways in the east

actually they hold lots of meeting on developmental issues...and they are building lots of link roads to connect the south east states together...i dont expect that u will know about this since u hate them and dont want to believe that they are not really the problem. Pls do u have any evidence that the fg awarded a project in the SE and instead the govs inflated and ate the money? Which project was that? Which year was that? Or is it just another westside propaganda? U guys are evil and wicked.

An airport owned by the fg damaged since 2016 and u are blaming the govs for not fixing it...who collects the taxes paid by planes using the airport? Is it the govs? So why will they use money meant for state projects to build fg's project. This is the same airport gej rehabilitated that made ethiopia airline to agree to come in...buhari is neglecting it but its ok for u...blame the govs and blame igbos...God sees all these
