Madam Abike Dabiri-Erewa should be sacked and prosecuted for displaying wickedness and inhumanity against Igbo population who are among those trapped in Sudan’s war, a Coalition of South East Youth Leaders, (COSEYL), has demanded.
The group, an apex socio-political youth group in the South East geopolitical zone in a statement signed by its president Hon. Goodluck Ibem said it was “alarmed over the inhuman and wicked treatment meted out to Nigerians of Igbo origin by Dabiri-Erewa wherein she and her team ordered all the Igbos who had entered the rescue bus sent by the Federal government to Sudan to come down while conveying Nigerians who are not of Igbo origin.
“This is barbaric and wickedness of the highest order against humanity and we condemn it in its entirety”, the group said.
The group further regretted that Abike Dabiri-Erewa who is paid by tax payers money which Igbos are among will segregate against the same people contributing for her salaries and allowances.
“This evil and unpatriotic act against fellow Nigerians which she was employed to serve must never go unpunished”, it added.
It accused Abike of committing a national and international crime, hence it demanded for her immediate sack, arrest and prosecution without any delay.
“She is a national embarrassment to the nation and she should not stay a day longer as Chairman of NIDCOM.
“We are aware that her major evil plan is to ensure that all Igbos stranded in Sudan are killed which is why she chased those innocent Igbos out of the rescue bus, but her plans is dead on arrival.
“We call on the Chairman of Air Peace Airline Barr Allen Onyema who made his planes available to transport stranded Nigerians free of charge back to Nigeria to ensure that the plane will wait and not move until those Igbos who were chased out of the rescue bus are brought to the safe point where other Nigerians are kept, it added.
It also called on the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Mr Geoffrey Onyema to immediately do the needful to ensure that those stranded Igbos left to their fate in Sudan are rescued immediately out of danger.
“We demand that those Nigerians who were chased out of the rescue bus should be the first people to board the flight before others and Abike should look for another means of coming back”, it added. (Daily Independent)
