This release has become neccessary to set the record straight about a misleading publication on the front page of Daily Trust Newspaper of Tuesday, May 24, 2022. It reads as follows: "IPOB KILLS WOMAN, 4 KIDS, 6 OTHER NORTHERNERS IN ANAMBRA", with several riders.

While it is true that there is general insecurity across the country, there is no targeted religious or ethnic killings in Anambra State. As a matter of fact, Anambra indigenes have suffered more casualties as a result of the unfortunate killings.

The insensitive slant of the Daily Trust report have the tendency to stir anger and disaffection in other parts of the country.

The report, therefore, is totally unacceptable and inimical to the unity and progress of the nation.

Government of Anambra State hereby states that the report is not only sensational but misleading and should be immediately retracted to reflect the real situation on ground.

It is on record that Ndi Anambra and people of the North and other parts of the country who live and do business in the state, not only share common values, but have always lived at peace with each other in the state.

Governor Soludo's administration has not only demonstrated commitment in tackling insecurity but has continuously reassured both indigenes and non-indigenes in the State of their protection and safety.

Daily Distrust newspaper is a brown envelope news medium whose staff are tribal bigots that shouldn't be taken serious. Imagine the screaming headline that is capable of setting the whole country on fire, just so they can drive home their ethnic jingoism. The killings are highly despicable but was it only northerners that were killed on that black Sunday? Do they have concrete evidence of who the perpetrators of the heinous crime were? Are they aware of many southerners that are victims of terrorist attacks and kidnappings that happens on a daily basis in most northern states? Why trying to give the killings going on in the east religious and ethnic colouration when it is mainly Igbos and christians that are at the receiving end of these atrocious killings. This biased newspaper can do better than this pls.

Even d headline Of this press release is misleading. It should have been ethnic killings,

Fear don dey catch them

Igbo:
Fear don dey catch them

Stop being a mischievous imp.

That publication was sponsored by Tinubu and some other unpatrotic Yoruba's.


The target of that publication is Peter Obi.
