ICYMI: CSOs kick as Electoral Bill raises presidential candidate's campaign spending from N5bn to N15bn
He said, “Nigeria has no leadership. The government has failed woefully. To me, Nigeria is going down. If you advise them, they go after you. People are ready to die. There is no exception. When you create an unbearable environment, when people are not comfortable with happenings around them, what do you expect? You see agitations.”
“People are agitating in the Southeast, Southwest, Middle Belt and Ijaw areas. When you are talking to the people in government and they do not listen, what do you do?” He said people in the Southeast have come under undue intimidation, harassment, arrests and detentions, wondering why the government is meting out such treatment to Ndigbo.
According to him, “In a country where you make it impossible for people to survive, you cannot stop agitation with force. People are ready to die because you made them have no hope. What else do you want them to do? That is the agitation you are seeing here and there. It is no longer peculiar to the Southeast.”
