You’re Not Responsible For Non-Participation of South-East In EndBadGovernance Protest – Ekpa Slams Govs, Umahi

Posted by Thandiubani on Thu 08th Aug, 2024 - tori.ng

Ekpa claimed it was BRGIE that called for the non-participation of Biafrans in the protests, adding that it recorded 100 percent compliance in the region.

 
The leader of the Biafra Republic Government In-Exile, BRGIE, Mr Simon Ekpa has slammed South-East governors and the Minister of Works, Dave Umahi.
 
He lambasted them for claiming to be responsible for the decision of the people of the zone to shun the hunger protests.
 
Ekpa spoke in a statement posted on X on Thursday.
 
Recall that governors Peter Mba, Enugu, Chukwuma Soludo, Anambra, and Hope Uzodinma, Imo, alongside Umahi, took responsibility for the decision of the Igbos to shun the protests.
 
However, Ekpa urged the people to disregard Mbah, Soludo, Uzodinma and Umahi’s claims.
 
He noted that the decision not to join the protest was because of the peoples’ commitment to the actualization of Biafra’s liberation from Nigeria.
 
Ekpa claimed it was BRGIE that called for the non-participation of Biafrans in the protests, adding that it recorded 100 percent compliance in the region.
 
“We call on Biafrans to disregard the claims of the politically corrupt leaders representing Nigeria within Biafra territory.

“The nationwide protest has shown that Biafrans rejected Nigeria.

“They are insinuating that they were responsible for Biafran citizens not participating in a civil movement currently ongoing in Nigeria tagged #endbadgovernance protest, which is outside the Biafra territory.

“It laughable that the likes of Soludo, Mbah, Uzodinma and David Umahi were seen in a video, attempting to appear relevant, spreading propaganda through the media.

“The nonparticipation of Biafrans is evidence that the Biafra government has succeeded in achieving delegitimizing within Biafra territory.

“Their responsibility has always been to maintain the continuous subjugation of Biafrans through their actions, activities and utterances in exchange for fame and relevancy.

“Biafrans should disregard them and their false notion but closely monitor as they continue to expose themselves and their various tactics of manipulation and deception.

“The Biafra Government called for no Nigeria protest within Biafra territory and it recorded 100% compliance, not the illegitimate corrupt Nigeria representatives that have been served with a vote of no confidence.

“The Biafran Government will continue its ceaseless efforts towards the actualization of Biafra Independence.

“We will lock down the entire Nigeria government institutions for one month and you will see compliance from these corrupt politicians too,” Ekpa said in the post.
 
Recall that the hunger protest, which started last week Thursday in many states in Nigeria and is expected to end on Saturday, August 10, 2024, was boycotted by the people of the South-East.
