Biafra: Ohaneze disowns Nnamdi Kanu, reveals solution to Nigeria’s problems

Biafra: Ohaneze disowns Nnamdi Kanu, reveals solution to Nigeria’s problems

- Ohaneze Ndigbo has dissociated itself from Nnamdi Kanu’s IPOB’s agitation to secede from Nigeria

- The group insisted that restructuring remains the solution to Nigeria’s problems

- The IPOB and MASSOB had been calling for secession of Igbo from Nigeria

Ohaneze Ndigbo, the apex socio-political organisation of the Igbo has again dissociated itself from Independent People of Biafra (IPOB)’s agitation to secede from Nigeria.

The IPOB is led by Nnamdi Kanu who was recently released by the Abuja High Court after he had spent over one year in detention.

The Punch reportsthat the Deputy National Publicity Secretary of the Ohanaeze, Chuks Ibegbu said that the group believes more in a restructured Nigeria; a Nigeria that has a level playing field for all sections of the country; a Nigeria that gives each part of the country a sense of belonging.

We gathered that Ibegbu said: “For example, in a country of 36 states, the South-East has five states and 95 local governments; while Kano State alone has 44 local governments.

The other time, we saw the statistics of recruitment in the Department of State Services with Katsina State alone having 51 allocations. Yet, we have the Federal Character Commission.

“We want the FCC to investigate the recent recruitment in the DSS. Abia State got only six allocations; Enugu State, six; Katsina, the home state of President Muhammadu Buhari, got 51 slots. These are the sort of issues that elicit agitations.

“When there is no level playing ground, do you think people will keep quiet? Abia State alone produces more graduates than 10 states in the North combined, yet you gave them only seven opportunities and gave Katsina 51.

"We are not saying Nigeria should be divided, but the issues these young men are talking about should be addressed. Instead, it seems they want people like Nnamdi Kanu to shut up without addressing the issues, judging by the bail conditions (they gave him).”

He said that the issue of secession should be forgone, adding that what Nigeria needs now is restructuring.

“Forget about the issue of secession or no secession; the fundamental issue we are talking about is restructuring of the country. There is the need to look into the more than 200 recommendations in the 2014 Confab report. Restructuring is the only solution to the problems of the country.

“With restructuring, even the issue of corruption would be addressed. What generates corruption? When the system is suffocating people, when the system is not properly arranged, people will be stealing here and there. You cannot stop corruption by force. Even the issue of lopsided appointments is corruption. We have to address the fundamental issues.

We had earlier reported that the Ohanaeze Ndigbo asked Federal Government should treat the Northern youths who issued three months quit notice to Igbos in the north should be treated like Nnamdi Kanu.
