VIDEO: Nnamdi Kanu/IPOB Supporters Disrupt ‘Handshake across the Niger’ conference

Nnamdi Kanu supporters and IPOB sympathisers, mostly women, have disrupted the ‘Handshake across the Niger’ conference, holding in Enugu.

The supporters accused organised, especially on the Ohaneze Ndigbo, of negligence of sufferings and killings of young people in the region.

The visibly angry supporters waited patiently until it was time for presentations before they rose to reject the gathering, shouting of foul plays in the country.

The meeting was organised by Nzukor Umunna, a socio cultural organisation affiliated to Ohaneze Ndigbo, aimed at x-raying the past, present and future of Igbo/Yoruba relationship and seek for ways to boost them.

GrassRoots.ng Recalls that the chairman of the South-East governors’ forum, Chief David Umahi, Thursday lambasted the organizers of ‘Handshake across the Niger’ conference for failure to intimate the governors of the area on the event.

Umahi while addressing the local organising committee, LOC, of the event led by Capital oil CEO, Dr Ifanyi Ubah which took place at the exco-chambers government house Abakaliki said that Ebonyi state will not send any delegate to the conference.

He said the State was not carried along in the conception and planning of the meeting.

He frowned at the neglect of the state in the organisation of the event, stressing that no notable Ebonyi person is in the committee organising the event.

Umahi also noted that the committee neglected to inform him of the event on time, adding that he decided to receive them because of the high regard he had for Mr Ubah.

He, however, promised to attend future engagements of the organisation if the abnormally was addressed.

“Igbo business men and industrialists should mind their business and stop meddling into politics like their counterparts from the North and Western part of the country”, he added
