The Ezendigbo of Oyo State, Dr.
Alex Anozie has stated that the proscription of the activities of the
Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) was a right step in the right direction.
He also said the South-East
governors and the Ohanaeze Ndigbo had taken a wise decision to save the region
from another war.
Anozie said it would be unwise
for Igbos to go into another war, having lost millions of their people in the
1967 – 1970 civil war.
The Ndigbo leader told newsmen in
his Ibadan office, that Igbo regretted the civil war fought in the past, adding
that the region could not afford to go into another war.
“It is a wise decision taken by
the leadership of Ohanaeze Ndigbo and South East governors. This will douse the
tension in the country.
“We don’t want war again in
Nigeria. We have fought war before and lost millions of lives and property
worth billions. We don’t want such a thing in this country again.
“I’ll advise our people to take
it easy and continue to appeal to the Federal Government to listen to us so
that our agitation won’t aggravate another crisis again. Igbos are the most
committed group to the Nigeria Project,” he said.
