Encourage Engagements on National Issues – NEF Tells New Ndigbo President
The Northern Elders Forum has urged the new President-General of Ohanaeze-Ndigbo worldwide to initiate and encourage more engagements on varieties of national issues between the North and the East.
Director, Publicity and Advocacy, Dr. Hakeem Baba-Ahmed, in a statement on Wednesday advised the new President-General, Chief Emmanuel Iwuanyanwu to set the ball rolling by tackling salient issues in the region.
The statement read:
“We look forward to continuing these engagements in the interests of the nation, on the unvarying principle that no part of the country shall ask or receive what is unjust, unfair or illegitimate.
“The Forum further notes that Chief Iwuananyanwu is a distinguished and accomplished Nigerian whose tenure, hopefully, will mark a significant improvement in elite cohesion and national concensus that should see the country through the difficult stages it is going through.
“We at the Forum believe that an opportunity should be created where fundamental issues about our past and defining decisions regarding our future should be discussed as dispassionately as possible, and solutions found to them,”.
