A pan Igbo
socio-cultural organization, Igbo Renaissance Movement has advised leaders of
the region to approach President Muhammadu Buhari with humility or lose any
form of goodwill from the nation’s leader.
National Coordinator,
Chris Chukwubuzor Azuka in a statement issued in Kano Sunday, described the
attack on Buhari as ‘misplaced aggression’.
The statement jointly
signed with Deacon Kingsley Godwin said “this is the time to approach President
Buhari with humility to rebuild trust, friendship and to pledge our loyalty to
his government.”
It warned Igbos “to
desist from building tower of isolation and antagonism, as being the antagonist
to our neighbour would not do us no good”.
“The Igbo race is being
hunted by its blind politics of hate, bitterness, isolation, greed over the
years. But this is the time for the Ndigbo to engage in honest self-examination
and soul searching,” he added.
The statement added
that the challenge facing Igbo nation was that of leadership and therefore,
called on its stakeholders to put their house in order for common good of the
zone.
The Igbo group endorsed
President Buhari’s war on corrupt leaders, urging him to continue with his
efforts to recover stolen funds from those guilty of fraud.
