A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Joe Igbokwe, has criticized a lawyer representing the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) for what he described as “subtly promoting the Nepal experience in Nigeria.”
In a post shared on the lawyer’s official Facebook page on Saturday, he drew parallels between alleged corruption in Nepal, which recently triggered a deadly revolution, and the situation in Nigeria.
Joe Igbokwe went on to express frustration that, unlike Nepalese youths who rose up to oust corrupt leaders, Nigerian youths appear to remain subdued and inactive.
The comments have since sparked reactions across various social media platforms.
The post, however, didn’t go well with Igbokwe, who took to his Facebook page to lambast the lawyer, linking him to the unrest in the South East.
Joe Igbokwe wrote, “The IPOB, UGM, ESN etc, Lawyer, Ifeanyi Ejiofor is not done yet. Their bloody groups have left unimaginable wreckage, massive destruction and thousands of deaths in the South East.
“Having failed woefully in 10 years bloodshed and massive destruction of homes including mine, this yeye lawyer is now stylishly and dangerously preaching Nepal experience in Nigeria.
“I have just read his write up a few minutes ago. Let us be guided. Let us thread carefully, let us have common sense even though common sense is not common”.
