What Ekeremadu said during plenary session about the Biafra Day deaths

Following the violent clash between the Indigenous Peoples of Biafra (IPOB) and security forces, the Deputy Senate President, Ike Ekweremadu, on Tuesday, urged security agencies to be cautious when handling protest and civil disturbances to avoid needless loss of lives.

Ekweremadu, who noted that the clash caused a wanton loss of live that could have been avoided if handled differently, said this while speaking at the Senate.

“I will like to use this opportunity under Order 43 to say that the security agencies must apply caution in trying to quell disturbances.”

“We have had so much of blood bath in this country under different circumstances and we cannot continue to lose young men and women because the future of this country belongs to them.”

“It is important that this senate rise to condemn any act of killing in any part of this country, especially with the one that concern the major part of our future which remains the youth.”

“We are now in a democracy and people should be entitled to speak their minds and to assemble under responsible circumstances.”

“Security agencies must also be responsible in dealing with those circumstances to ensure that lives are not lost unnecessarily. I just wish to bring to the notice of the senate for us to take note and possibly, the states involved to set up enquiry to find out what led to these clashes.”

  4. Well said HIS Exellency, God leads your courage and truthfulness.I urge all well meaning citizens cum human right activist of the world to rise to this injustice and killings of Biafrans for seeking their fundamental human right. Biafra is what we seek and we shall find. Killing the innocent citizen for seeking freedom of independent state of Biafra is an act of wickedness of the enemies of liberty, the pharaohs of our time. God wil surely help us , Biafra Republic is near by HIS grace. In Biafra “Africa”lives!
