Corrupt S-East governors sponsoring Biafra — Ohanaeze,
Okorocha
South-East governors
appeared divided, yesterday over the ongoing pro-Biafra Republic protests. While Imo and Ebonyi
states kicked against the protests, Abia State remained neutral, while Anambra
State said it was studying the developments. Also the umbrella body of Igbo
socio-cultural organizations, Ohanaeze Ndigbo and Imo State Governor, Owelle
Rochas Okorocha have distanced themselves from the ongoing protests in the
South-East for the actualization of Republic of Biafra, saying all genuine Igbo
leaders are against the protests.
Okorocha,
who is also the chairman of All Progressives Congress, APC, Governors’ Forum,
said that the reported violent protests in some states’ capitals, including
those of Rivers, Anambra and Delta, in the name of Biafra, do not in any way
have the support or blessing of the governors and leaders of the South-East
geo-political zone either directly or indirectly.
Meantime,
the Biafra protests continued, yesterday, in Aba, Enugu and Port-Harcourt.
