A Pan-Igbo Socio-Cultural group under the aegis of the Igbo National Council (INC) has rebuked the Governors of South East Zone for their inability to convene or have a functional South East Governors Forum (SEGF).
Igbo National Council (INC) in a statement signed by its national President Chilos Godsent, stated that the Governors of the South East Region are not representing the interest of the region or the People they are governing, alleging that some of them are representing the interest of the neocolonial foreign powers and interest that facilitated their emergence as Governors to the detriment of the interest of the people of their State and that of South East Region.
The Igbo National Council (INC) who described the governors acts as cowardice called for cooperation among the five governors of the South East states, urging them to put their House in order to collectively defend and represent the interest of South East people.
‘’In this vain, we are also calling on South East Caucus in the National Assembly to Start Meeting so the interest of South East Zone can be Properly presented and protected at the floor of the National Assembly.
Consequent upon the above, we therefore enjoin the Youths of South East Zone to Rise, Mobilize and pressure the Governors of the five States of the South East Zone to immediately commence the meeting of the South East Governors Forum (SEGF) or hide their faces in shame. ‘’ the group added.
