Silence is no longer acceptable in the face of this clear danger and threat against the country. The silence by political leaders and other prominent persons from that part of the country tells us only one thing: Their tacit approval for the activities of the murderous IPOB gangs.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He warned that Northern leaders may no longer be able to douse tension among their followers, \u201cif leaders from the south-east feel they can allow their own people to do what they wanted.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere is no part of Nigeria without its own share of discomfort and even reservations about the state of our country. Addressing such challenges require sincere political engagement, not threats and violence,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBesides, quest for political answers to one\u2019s grievances should never be directed at hapless citizens who are going about their own legitimate businesses. The day the victim decides to pay back the aggressor, it will not be good for everybody.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Recently, onion producers suspended supply to the south-east due to the spike in attacks in the region.<\/p>\n<p>IPOB has often been accused of carrying out violent attacks in the south-east since it launched the Eastern Security Network (ESN), its militant arm.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Senator representing Sokoto north, Aliyu Wamakko has accused Igbo leaders of not speaking up against the recent undue harassment of northerners in the south-east region.
