Chief Rommy Ezeonwuka, a member of APGA Board of Trustees (BoT), says members of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) that attend rallies in their hundreds and thousands are jobless.
He said that successive governments had been unfair to the youths through their inability to provide economically viable environment for them to be gainfully busy.
“What you see is a sign of frustration; they have been deprived of their rights by governments in the South-East”, he said. Ezonwuka spoke on Wednesday while reacting to IPOB threat to scuttle the November18 elections in Anambra.
The APGA chieftain noted that the ’No Election in Anambra’ chants by the agitators was senseless.
“The call for no election lacks sense; it is not in tandem with modern world, especially in democratic societies.
“Why will you destroy what you already have because of what you are looking for? Just like cutting off your nose?
“What are they even clamouring for? If it is Biafra, they already have it because their councillors, local government chairmen, even governors are their own people.
“What they should be doing now is to see how they can add value to the security, economic and political wellbeing of the region rather than disturbing the businesses and peace of their brothers and sisters,’’ he said.
