Today, all the other governors in the federation are up in arms about it and the Igbo people are singled out for condemnation for obeying the directive of President Muhammadu Buhari. For the avoidance of doubt, the Governor of Kaduna State had in a recent statement condemned the directive of the governor of Kano State. He stated clearly that the Almajiri kids were testing positive in Kaduna. The government of Taraba followed suit.
The migration to all the southern and Middle Belt states is akin to a biological warfare against the mentioned areas. The government of Nigeria knows what to do but it has chosen to ignore it while the areas are massively exposed. Somebody is delicately sending the weapons of biological warfare down South. The Almajirai kids had never been to the South but now, somebody is paying for their fares to get to the South. The kids can only speak Hausa. They are beggars and no one will employ them.
Igbo people are justified raising the alarm. This is happening under the guise of Almajirai movement. It is even alleged that military and police vehicles have even joined the transportation threat. The Igbo people must stay alert and promptly stop this invasion as the Federal Government will do nothing.
A coalition of pan-Igbo groups recently threatened to get the President General of Ohanaeze Ndigbo, John Nwodo, arrested if he doesn’t stop parading himself as the leader of the organisation, what do you think about that? The Federal Government dilly-dallied in responding to the COVID-19 threat. It is really a major exposure of the inadequacy of our healthcare system. In 2014, the Goodluck Jonathan-led administration successfully battled Ebola. The experience was jettisoned in preparing for the COVID-19 battle. We have no medical emergency procedures and neither do we have equipped hospitals and allied services. Today, the government of Kano State will rather enjoy denial than face reality.
