Orji Uzor and the Arewa Youths
Over the ultimatum give to the Igbos to quit the North, the former Abia State governor, has just received the leaders of the Coalition of Arewa Youths in his office in Abuja.
Former Abia State Governor, Dr. Orji Kalu, on Tuesday afternoon, received the leaders of the Coalition of Arewa Youths led by its chairman, Alhaji Shettima Yerima in his office in Abuja.
Here's what he posted on his Facebook page over the meeting on the Northern group;
"This afternoon, I received the leaders of the Coalition of Arewa Youths led by its Chairman, Alhaji Shettima Yerima .
It is the same group that made the Kaduna declaration in which three months quit notice was given to the Igbo people living in the North.
The quit notice have actually been a source of worry to me because I knew the commitments of our people around the world not to talk more of being economic migrants in nature.
"The unnecessary uprising caused by the quit notice inundated me to call them to order as nothing is too much to be sacrificed for peace.
"Today, they have given me their word of embracing peace and maintaining that no harm shall befall any of our people in the North.
I believe in a united Nigeria where fairness, equity and justice are instituted. I also believe that our lives are sacrosanct and no Igbo blood should be spilled at any slightest provocation again."
Before the visitors left, they had group photographs with their host as proof of their commitment to the promise and rethink.
