Gov Raji Fashola to payN5000Billion to deported igbos and pay N50billion to frank ukonga over biz demolished |
The entire igbo community in Nigeria are not happy by the deportation of the peoples of ndigbo extraction from lagos to Anmbra state under the bridge to be exact 75 Nidigbo indegine were deported from lagos recently but Governor Faahola hasdeported more than than 9000 Nigerians from lagos state. The Igbo Union ENRI based in enugu are asking for compendsation of N500 billion for the deported Igbo peoples
In a statement signed by the National President of the body, Barrister Joni Icheka; Secretary, Mr. Uche Nwegbo and Treasurer, Barrister Emma Nwodo, ESRI maintained that the deportation negates sections 21 (1), 22 (1) and 15 (3) of the Constitution.
They also condemned the Lagos state government for sealing off the property of the former Abia State Governor, Dr. Orji Uzor Kalu and frowned at the statements credited to the former Aviation Minister, Chief Femi Fani-Kayode, saying such statements were capable of bringing about ethnic hatred and a breakdown of law and order.
“ESRI therefore, demands an immediate payment of the sum of N500 billion compensation to these ill-treated Nigerians, whom the Lagos state government said were Ndi Anambra.
“Apart from paying them the compensation, the state government should also immediately provide them with befitting housing accommodation and publicly apologize for denigrating their personal liberty and smearing the sanctity of the constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
“If the Lagos State Government and their Governor fails to do these things within one month, we will be left with no option than to conclude that it was done with clear negative mind-set and vendetta and we would be left with no option than to take appropriate legal action,” the statement said.
while The Edo progressive Youth Youth Forum leader Mr Saiki Oyana are asking for N50 Bllion compensation for Prince Frank Onaivi ukonga's biziness that was crushed by governor Fashola of Lagos statre becouse the ameable prince criticized him over the overall policy thrust of renderin many peioples homeless by his demolitions, the next thing was that Prince Frank Ukonga became the next victim of Gov Fashola's victimization of those that criticiz him posotively.
Similarly the Igbo group based in Enugu are also seeking apology and compensation for Chief Oji Kalu whose house was sealed by gove Fashola over poasitrive criticism of depoting the Igbos in Lagos styate which is illegal as this is contrary to the Nigerian constitution.
Both the Igbo group and His Excellency might have no other alternative but to seek redress in court if Governor Fashola does not compensate them.
