A pan Igbo sociocultural organization, Igbo Renaissance Movement has accused fellow Igbo people of being hunted by its blind politics of hate, bitterness, isolation and greed over the years.
The National Coordinator of the group, Chris Chukwubuzor Azuka, in a statement issued in Kano today warned Igbos to desist from “building tower of isolation and antagonism, as being the antagonist to our neighbour would not do us no good.
“The Igbo race is being hunted by its blind politics of hate, bitterness, isolation, greed over the years. But this is the time for the Ndigbo to engage in honest self-examination and soul searching,” he added.
Chukwubuzor Azuka advised leaders of the region to approach President Muhammadu Buhari with humility or lose any form of goodwill from the nation’s leader even as he described the attack on Buhari as ‘misplaced aggression.’
The statement jointly signed with Deacon Kingsley Godwin said: “this is the time to approach President Buhari with humility to rebuild trust, friendship and to pledge our loyalty to his government.”
It added that the challenge facing Igbo nation was that of leadership and therefore, called on its stakeholders to put their house in order for common good of the zone.
The Igbo group endorsed President Buhari’s war on corrupt leaders, urging him to continue with his efforts to recover stolen funds from those guilty of fraud. [myad]
