We have read with great disappoinment the malicious and damaging statement credited to Gov Okezie Ikpeazu of Abia State saying that he will never allow the IPOB terrorists in Abia State as was published by a popular online news blog – Akelicious.net on Thursday 2nd January 2020.

We note that it is very sad, unpatriotic and treacherous for the Governor of Abia State – Chief Okezie Ikpeazu to make such reckless and unguided remark and statement against IPOB activists.

Though the Igbo National Council (INC) is not in agreement with the method, tactics and strategies of IPOB in the struggle for self-determination, but that does not mean that any reasonable Nigerian will refer the IPOB as a terrorist group noting the terror Boko Haram insurgency and other Islamic Movements has on leashed on Nigerians since over a decade with impunity.


We want to remind Gov Okezie Ikpeazu that it will be foolhardy for any sensible Nigerian to refer IPOB as a terrorist organization. When the Buhari led administration declared IPOB as terrorist group, well meaning Nations, groups and individuals all over the world rejected it and advised Buhari to revert that decision as IPOB is noted for its non-violent approach in her agitations for self-determination.

INC had expected Governor Okezie Ikpeazu of Abia State to declare fatwa on the pastoral Herdsmen that are ravaging communities farmlands, raping and killing community people in Abia State for many years without condemnation from the Abia State Government.

In view of the above, the INC therefore request Gov Okezie Ikpeazu of Abia State to immediately render an unreserved apology to the Igbo Race or we will declare him enemy of the Igbo Race.

Signed

Breaking : In Kogi Hoodlums invade House of Assembly, beat up lawmakers

By
It was gathered that the speaker of the House, Alhaji Umar Imam, narrowly escaped, but some other lawmakers were not so lucky. The Kogi State House of Assembly was on Tuesday invaded by hoodlums, who disrupted its plenary sitting and beat up members. The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that Speaker of the House, Alhaji  Umar Imam , narrowly escaped when the hoodlums attacked. The member representing Igalamela-Odolu state constituency,  Friday Sani , was however unlucky as the hoodlums beat him and inflicted serious injuries on him. Oluwatoyin Lawal  (APC-Yagba West) narrowly escaped being hit by one of the big chairs hauled from the gallery into the chamber while some journalists covering the sitting were also attacked and beaten as they scampered for safety. Vehicles belonging to the lawmakers were also vandalised within the assembly complex. The gate of the complex was also locked against the speaker and this enabled the hoodlums to pelt his ve...

By
The UN's aid chief has arrived in Yemen's capital, Sanaa, expressing his deep concern about the war-torn country's deteriorating humanitarian crisis.

Nigerian economy: A hole in my budget

By
Staring at the prospect of a recession for the first time in almost 30 years, Nigeria’s government is struggling to fund its budget, which it hoped would stimulate an economy that is reeling from the impact of low oil prices. A funding shortfall has kickstarted a debate about the future of key state assets. President Muhammadu Buhari has tabled a budget of N6.06 trillion (R260bn) for the 2016 fiscal year. The budget is partially funded by income from oil sales which have suffered since the beginning of the year following the return of attacks on oil facilities in the Niger Delta . Petroleum minister Emmanuel Ibe Kachikwu says half of government’s expected income has been lost as a result of the disruption to oil production. To get around the problem (at least in the short term), it has looked for alternative ways to raise funds. And in a surprise announcement, it says it will consider selling government assets such as oil and gas plants, refineries, airports, rail lines and...
