The event was organised by a Non-Governmental Organisation, NGO, Peering Advocacy and Advancement Center for Africa, PAACA.
The religious leader posited that with the continued discrimination and marginalisation against Ndigbo in various parts of the country, Igbo might be forced to return to their base, which in the long run may not augur well for Nigeria as a nation.JAMB Result
“If you drag Igbo people back to their place, what are you going to say about what they have done for you. There is discrimination against Ndigbo in Nigeria; the national hatred for Ndigbo must stop,” he declared.
Onubogu, who probably was referring to how Ndigbo were maltreated in Lagos following the outcome of the 2023 general election, called on Ndigbo to help themselves.
Speaking earlier at the occasion, Enugu State CAN chairman, Rev. Emmanuel Ede, lamented that the shoddy way INEC handled the just concluded 2023 polls which many believed would have been foolproof.NYSC Portal
“Our country is becoming too complex to handle. All the promises INEC made were thrown into the trash.
“INEC failed the entire world. If they had kept to their promises, we wouldn’t be where we are now,” he lamented, urging the National Orientation Agency, NOA, that held the Town Hall Meeting in conjunction with PAACA to embark on more orientation for Nigeria to be better.
