Why Shettima is wrong for calling IPOB members "an outlawed terror gang" over sit-at-home order

 

It's evident that the compulsory sit-at-home directive enforced by the leadership of the Indegenous People Of Biafra (IPOB), in the Southeastern region of the country, has been counterproductive as lots of casualties, including loses in the region's economy, have been recorded, but could this make the National President of the Arewa Youth Consultative Forum (AYCF), Yerima Shettima call the IPOB members "an outlawed terror gang?" The answer is 'NO' because, not all IPOB members have a hand in this happenings, and most of them are strongly against the sit-at-home directive.

Shettima in a recent report, warned members of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), over its call that the Middle Belt and Oduduwa Nation agitators should join in the sit-at-home directive, stating that, "the Southeast can sit-at-home for 10 years, but exporting their activities to the North will be faced with massive resistance from all lovers of peace in the North." He didn't end at this, he went further to call the IPOB members "an outlawed terror gang."


Read his statement as reported by News Agency of Nigeria (NAN), below:

"Since the governors of the Southeast seem to be satisfied with the activities of IPOB, we wish them the very best of luck and we hope they would continue with the sit-at-home for another ten years. We however, call on northern governors to step up action in order to ensure this outlawed terror gang, does not infiltrate the region. And we expect the governors to ensure that any northerner who shuts down his shop in solidarity with IPOB, would have his or her shop be sealed forever.
