Leadership of the Ohanaeze Ndigbo Youth Council, on Friday, said that the threat that emanated from the Coalition of Northern groups, over the suspension of Ruga settlement by the Presidency, was clea
rly a drumbeat of war and should be watched.
President-General of the body, Okechukwu Isiguzoro, stated this in a statement made available to journalists in Abakaliki, on Friday. This Federal Government’s initial plan was faced with stiff rejection and criticisms by different strata of the Nigerian society. “We are fully aware that the recent threats are targeted only at the lives and properties of peaceful Nigerians of Igbo extraction doing businesses in 19 Northern states, and this is a declaration of war against the Igbo and other law-abiding Nigerians.
