EXACTLY!

Slayerforever and all those faceless anti-Anambra goons will not tolerate Anambra people burning their LGA headquarters and all the crimes these people commit in Anambra!

Like Soludo intimated, they leave their own states peaceful to belong to a Fulani party, then they come to Anambra to start their so-called campaign against "Fulani Cows" and attack security agents? Who is fooling who?

Simon Ekpa and his people should know there is just so much that the people's patience can last. Then the Anambra youths will respond.

Educate the illiterate.........when some of our people open their mouths they expose their ignorance! Anambra that has more people living outside their own state!

It's not a good statement at all. I have expressed my displeasure with such posture from the governor. I won't say more. No need.

Nobody cares where a criminal come from. He has freedom of movement in his country. If he commits crime, he faces the law. A governor crying about where criminals came from is clueless and seeking to whip sentiment to cover his failure

the problem is no one is definitively sure of the source of the violence.........even ekpa has sworn his group has nothing to do with the violence! which is why soludo should have been wise by talking to the 2 ipob factions and by process of elimination, isolate the criminal elements within the agitation!

It does not work that way. The os not up to IPOB to change our business days. This is getting out of hand.

Well, that is life for you! sometimes when your desires jam reality,you are forced to compromise! The truth is that there is not much any of us can do to call it off, Soludo has considerable leeway to play grand politics on this issue! He should get the 2 factions in IPOB to the table first and see if they can call off the sit at home..........the state can agree to a sit at home on court days alone for the meantime.......while soludo pursues a speedy trial or political solution on this Nnamdi Kanu issue! Simon Ekpa himself has to also be politically pragmatic as well...........too many well-meaning young Igbo boys and girls have died over this agitation for us to treat this matter in the cavalier manner soludo tried to do initially, a good move by him is the truth and reconciliation panel he set up!

DoctorOlasDesk:
Soludo won't make a good governor. When i saw him at the waste clearing site at Ochanja, i knew it was same ol. No new ideas

He should use his experience in economics in making the state atleast economically better

God has spoken!

How do you know he has no new ideas? What did he do wrong in seeing a place cleaned up? How do you know he won't make the state economically better?

This is simply armchair political commentary! The man is not even a month into his journey and you are already laying a curse on his performance. A thousand pities.

Called a forum. Public forum

You're excused

Take matter of Nnamdi Kanu to his Abia state. Soludo wasn't elected to dialogue with ipob or release Nnamdi Kanu. Soludo has exhausted his patience. Like he said any other person in the bush is now a common criminal and will be treated as such. You people should carry your ipob back to your states.

OfoIgbo:


But if proven to be accurate, that none of those caught so far in Anambra, come from Anambra, it is damning. Those people should first of all, go and get rid of the Fulani parties (APC and PDP) ruling their states, before they start flexing muscle in Anambra that is being ruled by an Igbo party at least.

Anambra people chose Soludo, so Anambra people may feel insulted and disrespected if non-Anambrarians are trying to undermine a governor they chose with no magomago.

Let those non-Anambrarians first go and rescue their own states. Soludo has done his utmost best, better than any governor to give IPOB a listening ear, but if any unreasonable faction of IPOB thinks they can take a cruise with Soludo, very shortly they will notice that ndi Anambra will not stand for that rubbish.

Imagine what will be said if evidence shows that all the gunmen operating in Rivers state in the name of IPOB/ESN are from Anambra, which basically means any violent action taken by this group has no Rivers state indigenes input.

So basically we are now in a situation where non-Anambrarians are bearing arms in Anambra and causing all manner of hardship, including undermining the governor massively voted in by Anambrarians. Such actions should not be taking place without first having the buy-in of Anambra youths

Simon Ekpa can first of all start going to rescue his own state. Thank God IPOB-DOS seem to be cooperating with Soludo

Isn’t it odd to you that Umahi switched to APC and now there is no unrest in his State? Umahi’s loyalties are divided and he is doing the biddings of the Fulani led government. IPOB has called off the sit at home order. The FG modus operandi is to give IPOB/ESN a bad name, so as to hang it. Why will ESN that was formed to protect against Fulani bandits, all of a sudden start going after Igbo people? The hands of the Federal Government and DSS are all over this. They have 2 governors in the East in their pocket (Umahi and Hopeless Uzodinjo). These 2 governors, based on the bidding of the Federal Government, pay some jobless youth to burn down buildings in Anambra.
I think people are faulting Soludo’s statement because he is half stepping. The unrest in Anambra has the hands of the APC led Federal Government all over it. If he cannot State that Uzodinjo and Umahi, at the directives of the APC led Federal Government are paying some jobless youth, along with DSS, to burn down structures in Anambara, then he should not have said anything at all ... and instead stealthily fight and fix the problem.
IPOB/ESN can never burn down any parts of what they hope to be their future country.
That an illiterate, hungry youth can be bought over for a loaf of bread to go burn down a building does not mean said youth represent IPOB/ESN or the vast majority of Igbo people. DSS is also very culpable. Their presence is very heavy in the East and they do and undo under cover of darkness and then their propaganda machine goes into overdrive, in the morning, blaming these and that group for what they themselves did.
If Soludo cannot address the APC led FG and the APC governors in the East (one of which was imposed on the people of Imo state by an APC controlled Supreme Court) then he should not say anything at all. There should be no half stepping - go after the big fish - the ones behind it all. Name and shame the sellout governors because they because of their presidential and other selfish political ambitions, have decided to sell their people down the river.
Also, that some young men are arrested and presented as the arsonist doesn’t mean that they really were. People are framed all the time in Nigeria, even summarily executed by the Police and DSS for crimes of which they know nothing. Even if proper investigation is done and they are found to be culpable, then go after their sponsors.

One thing I know is there is something such as “no comment.” Soludo should be tight lipped and go about the business of taking Anambra to greater heights. If he chooses to speak, he should speak boldly and tell the whole story. Pussyfooting as he just did, served Igbo people no purpose. It just sets everyday Igbo people against other everyday Igbo people, while letting the APC led Federal Government and its minions in the East, off the hook. In effect, inadvertently helping them solididy their divide and conquer tactics.

On another note Di’m Odumegwu Ojukwu, did wonderfully well be creating APGA. I dare say that APGA is the only hope of the South Eastern region. Because APC seeks to make the whole of Nigeria a one political party state, whereby they instal governors who are only interested in doing the bidding of the Fulani led Federal Government, as opposed to serving the best interest of the people of their states.

Peter Obi did reasonably well as Governor of Anambra. When his 2 terms where over, why didn’t he remain as an APGA chieftain/Kingmaker and try to grow APGA massively on a regional level? Why switch to PDP to do whatever? I believe if he had remained to tirelessly build on what Ojukwu started, his name would be written in the annals of time, than this errand he is currently on.

Cockrochas Okoroawusa had tried on 2 prior occasions to win governorship in Imo, without success. Then he switched to APGA (because he knew the sentimental value of APGA) in the hearts of Igbo people. He won under APGA and then switched midterm to APC. Why didn’t APGA sue him for this and seek to remove him from office?

Why is it that Anambra people vote massively for PDP on the national level, but yet allow PDP to be pressing them on a state level, seeking to usurp the only state that APGA has? Why can’t APGA reach an informal agreement with PDP to look away from Anambra governorship election, in exchange for Anambrarian’s support at the national level?

What is the party chairman of APGA doing? Can’t they woo prominent Igbo’s from other states (e.g Alex Otti) to run under APGA?

What is being discussed at the South East governors forum? Could Umahi have been convinced (after his Governorship) to run for senate under the banner of APGA? Could he have been offered a choice position in the APGA party structure?

All in all, APGA needs to work aggressively at moving itself from the status of a one party state. Even that one state that Anambra has, Anambra plays softball as opposed to hardball, with a PDP that seeks to strip it of its one and only state.

Ojukwu’s influence as the ruler of the former Eastern region was what enabled him to create a party and actually have that party win an election on a state level. What have the current crop of APGA/ Igbo’s done to build on the foundation that was laid for them? Why are they not aggressively growing the party? Why are they allowing themselves to be pressed for the only state that they have? If APGA should lose Anambra (God forbid) then there will never be another viable Igbo party.

People like Peter Obi, should have been thinking more long term. There is more honor in being a Chieftain and Kingmaker in APGA (leading your people in the right direction) than the current hijinks he is on.

The only way forward is for Igbo’s to build a strong regional party, a party to be reckoned with and then enter into national politics from a position of strength. APGA is the only hope of the South East. APGA party members should not mismanage the solid foundation that was left for them.

That means all the Fulani people in the bush are common criminals. Hmmm! I wonder why the Federal Government went into a fit of apoplexy, when ESN was created to counter the common criminals in the bush. The same FG is trying to tag IPOB and ESN as common criminals, so that the Fulani marauders can continue unhindered. Amazing! What a country!

Another redneck. Take our land from who? Anambrarians are in charge of Anambra and still running some other states. So who should take back from who? You see your life.

Why haven't you been able to install a governor from an Igbo party in your state?

Deal with the log in your eyes before you start bothering about the speck in Anambra eyes

This is a valid question. But I also have to add that APGA needs to grow itself from within. What is the party chairman doing? Are they wooing eminently qualified men from these other states to run under the banner of APGA? Yes, a very patriotic and wise Igbo person would do it without any prodding. But not everyone is as wise and forward thinking. In fact some are asleep. You have to wake them up and get that zeal and fire burning in them. Once they are woke, they’ll never go back to sleeping on a bicycle. What’s seen (the light) can never be unseen.

When I checked his reconciliation list I applauded him for bringing top Igbo technocrats regardless of state. Joe Nworgu, Charly Boy, Onyeka Onwenu etc. But when I saw him make that silly statement I shoke my head in disbelief.

I don't know if he was being political with that statement by trying to rally Anambrarians into seeing the UGM as terrorists instead of villagers worth shielding. But if he meant that statement, then be goofed. That's because the UGM disturbing Anambra did not migrate from anywhere. They are full blown indigenes. Uzodinma despite his daftness will never be caught making such statement.

The truth is, same way Abia indigenes form the bulk UGM in their state, same way Imo boys form the bulk of UGM in Imo is the same way Anambra boys are the main UGM in their own state.

I don't believe in UGM language, the security agencies should fish out those people and call them by name unless the security agencies are hiding something. Otherwise, there is nothing like Unknown gunmen. These boys are known and coordinate well before hitting a state.
So, they should explain to us who exactly they are?

IDENNAA:


Look , I don't mind rubbing minds with fellow Igbo to pursue a common goal but when we discovered that these people wrecking havoc in Anambra are not Ndi Anambra it calls for further investigation as to why people from other states are causing mayhem in our state. With security and stable polity Soludo will not achieve anything.

You are probably saying this because you are not from Anambra but put yourself in our shoes. You watch your state burn to aches by people who are not from there. Don't make this into Anambra vs X states. This is a security situation where innocent lives has been lost and we are pressed to solve this problem.

Soludo is not regional governor and he has actually being very diplomatic about this issue but these elements want Anambra to burn....ffuck that ! They are destroying our infrastructures that will cost tax payers billions to build and you want Soludo to keep quiet and conceal their identities. Obiano also pointed out this same thing. Most of these people destroying Anambra are not from the land. In fact , Soludo is very nice. I would have named the states and tell Ndi Anambra to watch out.

Great comment! Let Simon Ekpa go and burn his village first then he can come talk to us with evidence. No other stare in the southeast is as accommodating as Anambra, I repeat, no other state

basilo101:

Ojukwu's capital was Umuahia. You people and inability to be part of larger groupings

But ojukwu didn't burn umuahia to the ground or start lockdown in umuahia during the war. He had the full cooperation of umuahia indigenes, it can't be the other way round. Anambra doesn't want, pls go away before we start our own

SlayerForever:
When I saw the headline on my news feed saying "100% of arrested hoodlums not from Anambra state" a statement credited to Soludo, I did not bother opening the link, I thought it was clickbait. I reasoned Soludo couldn't have said such a stupid thing.

To my utmost horror when I came online much later I saw Soludo actually made that statement. Why make such a comment? Why should a sitting Igbo governor tribalise a state problem? What has their coming from a particular Igbo state got to do with anything? Are Anambrarians angels?

In this current time the Igbos are consolidating to position themselves better in the Nigerian project,
Soludo thinks whipping up the age long powerfully cancerous Anambra clannish sentiment is the way to go? I went online and saw few rednecks already taunting the good people of Ebonyi but thankfully the majority were not in agreement with Soludo's reckless statement. That was very low and unbecoming of a man of regard.

With all the negative press Obiano got, Obiano was never known to make such ill thought comments. Same as Okwute Ndigbo. They don't make such comments and I plead with them to advise Soludo or he will just lose his way.

In the run up to the gubernatorial elections my superiors insisted Soludo will not make a good governor. I was quite disappointed on their position. But they insisted to me they know Soludo and he is not a people person at all. Such persons don't do well in administration despite his well known repute in management. Intelligence is not wisdom, wisdom is leadership. I pray he gets his acts right on time and I urge umuigbo from other states within and outside the SE to disregard that careless statement as we continue to put our house in order and consolidate. Thank you.

Soludo is an over-hyped idea-less polithiefcian. Only the wise can know this. No manifesto. He is just using UGM matter to distract his gullibles followers from good governance he was voted for.
