All markets, stores and artisan’s shops in Nnewi the industrial town and Onitsha the commercial city of Anambra State, opened for business as traders and youths shun the #EndBadGovernance# nationwide protest that started today across the country.

As usual as early as 6:30 am commercial buses and tricycle movement were noticeable on the roads and streets in Nnewi and Onitsha, conveying traders and artisans to their respective markets, stores and shops in the towns.

Ndigbo had severally made their opposition known to the planned protests or 10 days of rage that started today.

One Igbo vocal group that made their opposition categorically clear to the protest is the United Igbo Elders Council, UNIEC, Worldwide, and their stand according to a statement they issued Thursday morning is “based essentially on the differential attitude to human rights that the organizers have shown towards the Igbo/East in particular, and other Nigerians as well.”

UNIEC, in the statement signed by its Director, Media and Publicity, Prof. Obasi lgwe and its Coordinator General, His Lordship Alpha Justice, said that “The loud silence, signalling acquiescence, of some of its organizers to the extremely targeted injustices against the Igbo/East and, for the last nine years, orchestrated killings, with countless evidences of official involvement or connivance, with no sympathy from anywhere, baffles imagination.

UNIEC further stated that “Right now, even before the August date, the Igbo are already being threatened, attacked and molested in Lagos with no word of condemnation by those said to be fighting against bad government.”

“Nevertheless, the Igbo population, being the major victims, understands the Nigerian situation very well, and know what can be  done to address it, starting with ending the unparalleled oppression of Easterners.”UNIEC statement entitled, Rage or Protest in Nigeria: Position of the United Igbo Elders Council, UNIEC, Worldwide, rather made ten-point demand on Mr President to stabilize Nigeria instead of supporting the protest.
