Disregard Godwin Idei’s claim to Aro throne – Arochukwu Royal Palace

Our attention has been drawn to a 10-paragraph press release captioned “Court Update on Eze Aroship”dated August 1, 2024 and signed by a certain Mazi Dr Agodi Kanu, who claims to be Director of Palace Communication. In fact, he is an impostor as no such Office exists in Arochukwu Palace. Ordinarily, we would not have bothered to honor the author of that press release with a response but for the benefit of Umu Aro and the public who might be deceived by the antics associated with a dying horse struggling with its lasts kicks. We wish, therefore, to make the…

Re: Zero Protest in Southeast Not Due to Political Maneuvering; Don’t Take Credit

PRESS STATEMENT - July 4, 2024 The Southeast Zone of the National Youth Alliance (NYA) is compelled to respond to the recent press briefing by Governor Hope Uzodimma, Chairman of the Southeast Governors Forum, regarding the Southeast region's indifference to the ongoing nationwide protests.

Any politician or group claiming credit for this development is either being dishonest or insensitive to the region's challenges. The NYA emphasizes that this…

INSECURITY: Resign Now And Face Investigation, NYA Fires Back At Gov Uzodimma, Condemns Attempt To Intimidate Nonsonkwa

August 3, 2024 The Southeast Zonal Chapter of the National Youth Alliance (NYA) vehemently condemns Governor Hope Uzodinma's attempt to intimidate our Imo State Chairman, Comrade Chinonso Uba Nonsonkwa, and the entire NYA leadership and members in Imo State. Governor Uzodinma's catastrophic failure to protect lives and properties in Imo State since his controversial assumption of office in January 2020 is well-documented. His gross ineptitude has transformed the state into a killing field, where hoodlums and thugs reign supreme, causing unimaginable hardship and pain to the people. The Governor's inability to bring a single perpetrator to justice is a glaring…
