A Few days after members of the Indigenous People of the Biafra (IPOB) movement claimed responsibility to the near-attack on Nigeria's Minister of Transportation, Mr. Rotimi Chibuike Amaechi, in Madird-Spain, while attending a climate change conference; a group, identified as Concerned Youths of Niger Delta (CYND) have reportedly given a seven-day ultimatum for the IPOB to apologize to the Minister, or all properties belonging to people of the Igbo ethnic group living and doing business in Ikwere-land (Minister Amaechi's Home-land) would be destroyed if such action repeats itself.
Describing the attack as "national embarrassment", CYND's National Coordinator, Commander
Chikaru Oronda Ndamati, while briefing News men in Port-Harcourt, Rivers state capital city, cautioned the IPOB against unleashing their anger on
the Transport Minister, or other national leaders over personal grievances.
The CYND group is reportedly made up of six Niger-Delta states: Akwa-Ibom, Bayelsa, Cross-River, Delta, Edo and Rivers states.
Here's a Call for Peaceful resolution of issues that tend to divide us.
