Christians killings: Presidency Spokesman Allegations Sparked outrage in South East – OYC

Press Release – 9th June 2020

…. Ohanaeze Ndigbo insists on a Presidency dialogue with Igbo leaders and IPOB.

Ohanaeze Ndigbo Youth Council Worldwide had described the recent Media Publication of Presidency through Garba Shehu, the Presidential Spokesman, where he alleged that IPOB Spent Over 85,000 USD per Month to wage War against Nigeria and destroy the existing relationship between Nigeria and USA and UK Governments, as mismanagement of information which had sparked Uproarious criticisms, Protests, and Uprisings in the South East 

OYC observed that barely 12 hours after Presidential Spokesman Made the allegations of IPOB’s  Persuasive roles for the Appointment of US Special Envoy for investigation and inquiry into the killings of Christians in Nigeria, as tensions are brewing up in the South East, and if it’s not handled very well, there might be an American version of Violence and Protests in Nigeria, OYC demand for immediate action to prevent break down of law and order that may put Igbo land on flames amidst Coronavirus Pandemic rising index cases in Nigeria. 

Nigerians had seen several videos and reported cases where Christians were Unjustly and brutally beheaded and Murdered including in the Army by Boko Haram terrorists and Muslim Armed gangs led by killer Herdsmen, There are Opportunities that play out in every Crisis, irrespective that its the Responsibilities of Every Government all over the World to Protect lives and properties of her citizens no matter the religion or Tribe,  there’s always a chance to utilize peaceful approach and dialogue to resolve internal conflicts. 

OYC insists that Federal Government should directly or through Intermediaries dialogue with Igbo leaders and IPOB and reach a truce and Agreements either in Nigeria or elsewhere rather than Using Armed Security Forces against Unarmed civilians protesting against allegations that sparked out Demonstrations which will attract International sympathy towards IPOB if there’s the further killing of Protesters.

We appeal to all Biafran agitators to rescind further Protests to avert disaster or Confrontation with the Military, Since their legitimate efforts to ensure that their grievances for prompt action from USA Government to Establish a Special Envoy to Nigeria had been acknowledged.
