Why I Sacked Non-indigenes In Abia Civil Service - Orji Abia State governor, Chief Theodore Orji has stated that the decision to rid the state civil service of non-indigenes was borne out of the desire to protect his citizens who faced similar ordeal in other states of the South-east. Speaking during the occasion of his conferment with the “Man of the Year Award” of Daily Independent Newspaper in Lagos over the weekend, Orji said though he does not regret the move, it was a response needed to restore the pride of the people whom he governs. Orji, alongside president of Dangote Group, Alhaji Aliko Dangote and former chairman of the Federal Inland Revenue Service (FIRS), Mrs Ifueko Omoigui-Okaru were honoured for their various contributions to the country’s economic development by the paper. In all about 2,604 non-indigenes mostly from the neighbouring Imo State were disengaged from the Abia State government public service on August 25, 2011. Apart from Imo State, whose indigenes formed the bulk of those laid off; workers who are from Anambra, Ebonyi and Enugu States were also affected in the purge prompting misgivings in the South Eastern part of the country. According to him, “When I have the opportunity to serve the Abia State people, I have no apologies to make to anybody. What I want to place on record is this, I wondered where people were when Abia born people were being chased away from other civil services.” Orji, a retired civil servant said, “If Abia is chasing other people away, we are only copying what others have done to us. It was a question of observing fairness and equity”. 1 Like

Imagine how many abains will lose their job if other state do the same. This is selfishness and selfcentredness. If abia people also wellcome it, it shows that they are not hospitable and are xenophobic. 2 Likes |

What if the other states retaliated ? "to save their own citizens who experienced the same in Abia" ? Some cheap crappy excuse. Anyhow, I'm proud of the other SE states that didn't witch hunt poor Abians working in their elementary and secondary schools. |

This idiot Orji Kalu is a useless nincompoop. And thousands of Igbos are in Lagos Civil Service, just watch what will happen in the next couple of months. There will be Salary increase, followed by the sacking of all Shinedu and Shinyere. They will all be asked to go back to their baby factory business. Even Shikodi and Shinasa will pay school fees in Lagos Primary and Secondary schools. 4 Likes 1 Share |

We will not take it... Lagos is a no man's land... Even if as an Imo man I can't get a job in Ebonyi, Enugu, Abia or Anambra I must partake in sharing of Lagos. That's my headache right now let no one try to cure me. Modified. I had to go look back and realized this thread is from 2013, I'd thought someone posted an old article in response to Obasa's statement. Wow. look at what Igbo people were saying in 2013 and compare to what they are saying in 2023. This people dey really play with Yorubas I swear to God. 3 Likes |
