Anambra community youths warn politicians against attacks on Obi
Youths of Agulu in Anaocha Local Government Area of Anambra State have warned desperate politicians in the state to stop attacking the person of Mr Peter Obi or face the wrath of the youths
The youths, in a statement signed by Maduagwu Eric-Kenny and Mr. Chamberlain Egoh, their Chairman and Secretary in Awka on Wednesday condemned what they described as ‘unfounded attacks’ from desperate politicians seeking votes.`
They expressed worry about how some politicians who go to Agulu to ask for votes mock and provoke Obi even as many of them had benefited from his generosity and support.
According to them, such conduct is unacceptable.
“Peter Obi’s name commands respect not only in Nigerian politics but also on the global stage, we will never allow anyone, regardless of position or influence, to diminish his image.
“We therefore issue this unequivocal caution: any politician visiting Agulu for any purpose must refrain from making derogatory or disparaging remarks about our dear brother, Peter Obi,” they said.
The youths said future attempts to malign Obi in Agulu would be met with ‘organised, peaceful but resolute resistance.’
They added that just as others guard their political elites with pride, the people of Agulu would continue to cherish and protect Obi as an identity that opens doors across Nigeria and beyond. (NAN)
