Igbo youths under the aegis of Coalition of South East Youth Leaders, COSEYL, have threatened to fill Anambra Government House with refuse over the Gov. Chukwuma Soludo's uncomplimentary remarks against the presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Mr Peter Obi.
COSEYL which expression utter disappointment in Soludo over the anti-Obi comments, gave the Governor up till Friday, November 25 to retract his words or brace up the the wrath of Igbo youths.
The apex Igbo socio-political organization in a press statement by its President General, Goodluck Ibem, said that time had come for unpatriotic Igbo politicians to be cut to sizes.
" We have set Friday 25 November, 2022 as a day we will carry refuse, debris and dump them at the gate of Anambra State Government House to serve as deterrent to other Igbo political office holders who might want to insult the sensibility of the Igbo nation", the statement read in part.
Continuing the statement said:"Dumping of refuse in the house of anyone who committed sacrilege against his people is a traditional way of disciplining and teaching lessons to anyone found wonting.
"The Igbo nation is a big and blessed nation that should not be toiled with by one single individual. That Soludo is the governor of Anambra State today is not of his making but is the making of God using Anambra people to vote him into office.
"The statement of Soludo and the audacity with which he spoke against Mr. Peter Obi the Labour Party Presidential candidate portrayed him as a man who felt that he is above God and Anambra people who elected him as governor.
"Without mincing words, Soludo insulted the sensibility of Anambra State and the entire Igbo nation by his misguided statement against Mr. Peter Obi. Soludo just confirmed to the world that he lacks common sense".
COSEYL demanded the resignation of Soludo or his impeachment by the Anambra State House of Assembly, saying his emergence was an error.
"It is very unfortunate that Anambrians elected a misfit with the title of a Professor as governor and the error has to be corrected immediately by Anambra State House of Assembly members by impeaching Governor Charles Soludo immediately. Anambra is too blessed to have such a character as governor.
"Four years is too long to wait for a man who has no vision to lead the good people of Anambra State that have enough intelligent people both home and abroad. It will be on Insult on Ndi Anambra to wait for four years for Soludo to complete his tenure which was given to him by the people.
"We call on the Speaker and the entire members of Anambra State House of Assembly to immediately start the process of Soludo's impeachment process in other to save Anambra people of this national embarrassment by a supposed Professor.
"We want the entire world to know that Soludo's unguided statement against Peter Obi is his personal opinion and not the opinion of his own family. His own biological son said Peter Obi is the best Presidential candidate which is contrary and directly opposite to his father's statement."
Igbo youths restated their unflinching support for Obi's presidential bid, declaring that Soludo is on his own and should be disregarded.
"Governor Soludo is standing alone on his attack against Peter Obi and any one who might have paid him for such a hatchet job should go and collect his money back from him because his statement does not hold any water whosoever."
