Governor David Umahi
The Governor of Ebonyi State, David Umahi, has declared that the state will never be part of Biafra or take part in any separatist movement.
The Governor disclosed this on Saturday while speaking to members of the Nigerian Guild of Editors (NGE), at the Government House in Abakiliki.
Umahi said, “Even if there were to be Biafra, Ebonyi will not be part of Biafra. I have said it before and I will continue to say it. First and foremost, I have been saying it, if anybody tells you about Biafra, tell them Ebonyi State will never be part of Biafra. We are not Biafra.
“We have been so oppressed and now we are finding our feet and you want us to go back. We will not. We will not. Let me make it clear for all to hear. Ebonyi State will not be part of any Biafran agitation,” he said.(Daily Independent)
