Don’t push Ndigbo into another civil war Ohanaeze cautions Ekpa
By KENNETH ONYEKWERE, ABAKILIKI
Apex Igbo Socio-cultural Organisation, Ohanaeze Ndigbo Worldwide has condemned the purported Declaration by Simon Ekpa, leader of Ekpa killer squad(Autopilot) as “Biafran Prime minister in Exile”.
Ohanaeze said it viewed the latest episode as an orchestrated attempt by the Nigerian Finland-based Igbo enemy, who has made himself a working tool in the destruction of Igbo land.
In a statement signed and made available to The Trumpet on Tuesday by Ohanaeze’s Secretary-General, Mazi Okechukwu Isiguzoro, noted that after detailed reports of heightening terrorism from Ekpa’s Finnish base, including reports from a journalist, who was in Enugu last February to interview families of victims of the terror attacks, affirmed on FinnishTelevision was presented to the Finnish Government.
According to the statement, Ndigbo has rebutted and renounced in strong terms the formation of Biafra Government in Exile, by Simon Ekpa who is the greatest enemy of Ndigbo in the last 200 years, saying he is the most dangerous terrorist in Africa but operates from Finland.
“if the Nigerian Government fails to check this ugly development, Ekpa’s game plan is to plunge Nigeria into another undeserved Civil War. Ndigbo is now given a standing order to capture Ekpa dead or alive.

“He must not be allowed to escape justice as the leader of the most dreadful killer squad in the South-East whose sole aim is to destabilize the zone with his satanic agenda of leading another Civil War against Nigeria.
“For the avoidance of doubt, Ndigbo can never be pushed into fighting another war, regardless of the provocations of Ekpa and his paymasters who surprisingly are hurt by the ongoing fraternity existing between Ndigbo and their Yoruba siblings and are hell-bent on thwarting it.
“From declaring a 5 Day sit-at-home in the South-East during the Presidential election to the declaration of Sit-at-home in Lagos, Ekpa has only one agenda- the destruction of Igbo land, to fulfil his paymaster’s political ambitions.
“Indeed, his latest drama is aimed at distracting the Labour Party, LP, Presidential candidate from the pursuit of his Pan-Nigerian mandate at the election tribunal by questioning his belief in Nigeria when his people are pressing on with Biafra and now have a “Prime Minister in exile”
Ohanaeze urges Nigerian and Finnish Governments without further delay, to extradite Ekpa back to Nigeria to face prosecution for crimes against humanity.
