Hehehe..........The
Aba born billionaire businessman and South East Chairman of Nigerian
Young Professionals Forum (NYPF) @chimaanyaso has this to say concerning
the ongoing Military operations in his home state Abia.
I
have observed with a deep sense of sadness the unfortunate show of
force, brut and intimidation by the Nigerian Military in the South East
particular Abia State. The operation Python Dance II is ill timed, ill
motivated and highly provocative. We see no justification for this
unprovoked brazen military invasion of the very peaceful South East
region by the Nigeria Army most of whom have been reported to be of a
particular ethnic stock
The
Federal government under President Muhammadu Buhari has said severally
that Nigeria's Unity is not negotiable yet we have seen no genuine steps
towards peacefully addressing the many agitations of the Youths and the
component units that make up this entity called Nigeria. The Federal
government have treated with negligence the complains of
marginalization from several groups, dismissing cogent concerns of well
meaning Nigerians as mere political opposition. From lopsided
appointments to culpable ignominy of the victims of herdsmen violence
across the country agitations are rife.
The
deployment of Military and display of heavy artillery in the South East
and the over militarization of the region at this point suggests that
the government of the day holds no value for the region. At such a point
when South East elders, Youth Leaders and Political leaders have
engaged the leadership of IPOB in talks towards finding a lasting
solution to the agitations, is this military invasion not an attempt to
destroy our efforts?
We
therefore join eminent and well meaning Nigerians who have spoken out
to condemn this illegal military operations and call for the immediate
halt of operation Python Dance ii and the withdrawal of troops from the
South East region forthwith.
God bless Federal Republic of Nigeria
God bless Nigerian Youths
