There’s no benefit in violence, Ohanaeze tells Igbo youths

The President of Ohaneze Ndigbo Worldwide, Professor George Obiozor, has again advised Igbo youths involved in the current violent attacks on security operatives and government institutions to desist forthwith from such nefarious activities.

Moreover, Ohanaeze reminded that youths that the lot of the people cannot be changed by provoking hatred amongst ourselves, raining insults and abuses and declaring war against those who disagree with your own ideas and approach to resolving our common problems.

The apex Igbo socio-cultural organization made this known during a press conference convened by Prof Obiozor and some key officials of the association on Friday at its national secretariat in Enugu.

He made a passionate appeal to the members of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) and other pro-Biafra agitators to give peace a chance, insisting that “we must exercise some level of caution in our agitation for justice.”

He called on the Federal Government to reconsider the use of force in resolving the present national crises.
