A socio-cultural group, the Ohanaeze Ndigbo, Bayelsa State chapter, after a stakeholders’ meeting on July 14, resolved that, “Chief Chinedu Ugwa, Chief Remigius Ekwem, Mr. Patrick Emeka Ugwu and others and have been totally excommunicated from Igbo community activities.”
A communique signed by 28 Ohaneze Ndigbo members and read by the president, Mazi Onuma Johnson, stated that, “the title (Enyi Ndigbo) and award given to Hon. Dr. Gentle Emelah is null and void, and therefore, he should not cavalcade the said title and award by the above named impersonators as Ndigbo is doing everything within the ambit of the law to bring them to order.
“Chief Chinedu Arthur Ugwa, Chief Remigius Ekwem and other disgruntled elements are not representing Ndigbo in the state.
“Anybody who falls in love with their relationship and wishes to do business with them, should do it on a personal ground and not in the name of Ohanaeze Ndigbo Bayelsa State.
“Anybody who does business with them in the name of Ohanaeze Ndigbo Bayelsa State will be considered as an enemy of the community and one who is fueling crises in Ohanaeze Ndigbo, Bayelsa State, hence the community will contend with the said individual or group of individuals.
“Ohanaeze Ndigbo in Bayelsa State is not in crises, any government officer, community and/or security agency dealing with the said individuals should be ready to face the wrath, the actions may cause.
“The community resolved to continue to give unreserved and total support to the Bayesa State government for the swift attention given to security challenges through peaceful co-existence as we appreciate the Prosperity Government as it affects Ndigbo in the state,” he read.
