Igbo Youths Protest Over Stella Oduah's Ordeal by kmanning: 8:03am On Oct 27, 2013

Business activities were, Saturday, paralyzed at the Akanu-Ibiam International Airport, Enugu, although temporarily, as hundreds of Igbo youths, under the aegis of Igbo Progressive Union (IPU), embarked on a peaceful protest against the calls for the sack of Oduah over the controversial armoured cars.

The kinsmen of the embattled minister from Ogbaru local government area of Anambra State, led by High
Chief George Nwabueze, also exonerated her from any wrong doing in the purchase of the cars. Nwabueze said that the target of those calling for the head of Oduah was President Goodluck Jonathan whose second term ambition in 2015 they have vowed to stop by all means.

The protesting young men and women, who carried placards with different inscriptions, accused an unnamed personality of being behind the calls for the removal of the minister, insisting that the intention was to stop Oduah from going ahead with her transformation agenda in the aviation sector.

The group, who spoke through their leader, Emeka Agbo, a student of the Institute of Management and Technology (IMT), Enugu, said Igbo youths were prepared to go the whole hog in ensuring that their daughter was protected, expressing dismay that some highly placed individuals were determined to rubbish the achievements of the minister.

Nigeria as a country is too artificial and comic... Why is every body putting pressure on the President and National Assembly in this matter? Why can't people wait for the out-come of the investigations before staging any protest( if the find lop-holes in them)?... Is the protest meant to stop the investigations going on or to blackmail those carrying the investigations?... Its unfortunate, how supposedly educated people behave in such a way that traverses the very essence of education and civilization?... After all these protests, what happens if its proved beyond doubt that the Lady is guilty of the offence?... I have nothing against the Lady, in fact for me she is the best Aviation Minister in Nigeria so far but if we keep on bend rules because of who is involved then we will only have ourselves to blame because corruption does not belong to a particular tribe or ethnic group neither do poverty, insecurity, underdevelopment etc that are come with corruption have anything to do with tribe or geographical boundaries.
