First-Republic Aviation Minister, Chief Mbazulike Amaechi, says the killing of youths in the South-East persists because the geopolitical zone has a “very weak set of governors”.
He stated this while reacting to the recent killing of some youths in Emene, Enugu State.
Chief Amaechi said that the unwarranted killing of Igbo youths must stop and berated the governors for not doing enough to bring a stop to it.
He said it was sad because the security officials believe that they can kill the Igbo without anybody asking any question.
Commenting on the 2023 presidency, Amaechi said that the choice of President Buhari’s successor was crucial to the unity and existence of Nigeria, particularly as the Igbo are concerned.
The elder statesman noted that the Igbo nation would be compelled to revisit its existence in Nigeria if denied the presidency in 2023.
He expressed the readiness of Ndigbo to continue to contribute to the growth of the country, noting that Ndigbo worked for the independence of Nigeria more than any other section of the country.
