A group known as Igbo Renaissance Forum has described the outcome of National Assembly leadership election as a way of completely scheming Ndigbo out governance of the country.

The group said that as the country stands today, there is no Igbo man neither in the executive arm, nor in the Judiciary, nor in the security and nor in the legislature, stressing the need for fairness, justice, equity in so-called One Nigeria project.

The International Coordinator of the forum Nze Ugo-Akpe Onwuka (Oyi of Oyi II) in a statement said it had become very obvious to even a blind man that the Igbo are not wanted in the affairs of Nigeria.

He said: “First of all, we would want to seize this opportunity to congratulate the malevolent schemers who have succeeded in scheming the Igbo nation out of the country Nigeria.

“We are congratulating them because they have succeeded in doing what is virtually impossible in sane climes. They have succeeded in strangling separation of powers and would in no time shoot the rule of law, point blank in the eyes.

“It is great to know that you completed your mission albeit without much resistance from those who are at risk and should have known better. It is expedient to note that the final nail was hammered into the casket of Igbo involvement in governance in Nigeria yesterday as the cycle is fully completed.

“The time for introspection is now. This is the time for the Igbo nation to go back to their drawing board and get things fixed.

“We are proud to be who we are! We do not stand with evil, and we are ready and willing to bear the consequences of such a noble stand. When the roll call of those who have separated themselves from the plague shall be made, we shall stand tall and with broad smiles on our faces, tell the world that, “yes, we stand by our principle,” Onwuka stated.
