Ekweremadu you're now the mouthpiece for no-state-creation

"Requests for new states hit 61" sun newspaper 6/19/13

Mr. Ekweremadu, the mouthpiece for no-state-creation.

Mr. Ekweremadu is now the mouthpiece for no-state-creation. One or two more states for the South East are moral imperatives and transcend legal or constitutional challenge. Yet Ike keeps on referencing the northern military juntas' constitution, their legal illegalities. The military dictatorships led by northerners partitioned Nigeria in way that favored north and punished the South East. They then erected an insurmountable huddle that made it impossible to undo their treachery. And this is why a sovereign national conference is imperative since the so-called legislators cannot dismantle the military juntas’ legal illegality, which Mr Ike calls the constitution. Mr. Ekweremadu, do you honestly belief that each of the 3 zones in the north are more populated (Indigenously) than the Igbo population in Nigeria?

Mr Ekweremadu, you did not have to accept the chairmanship of the constitution review committee knowing full well that it will paralyses you from fighting the great injustice done against your people, on the state and local government allocations.  I thought that that position would have enabled you to undo the wrong against Igbo. Well, a weakling always find the fault of aggression or trouble-making from among his own people.  Mr. Ike you’re the chairman in the Senate, Ihedioha is in the House, the two northern leaders of these two chambers may have once again out –smarted both of you.

Mr. Ekweremadu you know that at the end of the day, is not the number of committees you headed. You will give account of your service to your constituency, state and to Igbo people.  History will not be fair to you if you did not set aside selfishness, self ‘servicingness’ and ego and work assiduously to right this wrong against your people. Yes, you represent all Nigerians but you must first represent your people because as they say charity begins at home. You cannot convince other Nigerians that you represent them if you could not effectively represent Ndi-Igbo.

And knows this, Mr. Senator, there cannot be one Nigeria without Igbo. And if this is true as you know it is, Igbos cannot be second class citizens in their ancestral homeland. So something gat to give and is my belief that injustice must give up for justice. Mr. Ike if you agree with me as there is no reason to disagree then fight to secure Igbo right, fight like it is your last fight because it could as well be your last.
