The Ohaneze Youth Council, OYC, has warned that any attempt
to remove Deputy Senate President, Ike Ekweremadu from office will fail. The group claimed that some fifth columnists are envious of
the position being occupied by Ekweremmadu in the country, hence, their
determination to frustrate him out of office.
According to the group, “Nigerians from all works of life
are already comfortable with the leadership of the Senate and those plotting to
threaten the Senate leadership especially the office of the Deputy Senate
President occupied by Senator Ike Ekweremadu should shelve such move as it will
surely fail”.
A statement by Hon. Obasi Ogbonnaya, the co-coordinator
Abuja and Liaison Officer, Northern Region of Ohanaeze Youth said “the South
East is also comfortable with Senator Ekweremadu and his achievements in the
Senate.
“His Constituency in Enugu East Senatorial zone and the
entire South-East are feeling his impact.
“We have gotten information that some hatchet persons from
the South-East APC have been busy lobbying the Senate membership and the
Presidency to lend their support to the devilish plan to threaten the office of
the Deputy Senate President. We warn such people to desist from such ill-fated
moves as it is bound to fail. “The fact that there is now one APC Senator from the
South-East, which is, however, still subject to litigations at the tribunals
does not in any way make such persons to begin to try the impossible as the
South-East and Nigerians will resist that. “Of course, the Senate is made up of cerebral and patriotic
minds that will not lend themselves to any such act.
“We warn busy body persons of South-East extraction who may
lend themselves to be used for any such unpatriotic move to prepare to face the
wrath of Ndigbo and Nigerians. Such persons will be declared persona non grata
in Igbo land”.
