He recently revealed this via a statement issued by his media office in Abuja, and Nigerians have been reacting.
According to him, the killing is wicked, unwarranted, and unnecessary, and Ndigbo cannot afford to be linked to a senseless murder right now.
He then appealed to all political actors and youths in Imo State to reject violence as a means to address the challenges faced as Ndigbo in Nigeria.
His words, βIt is not in our character as Ndigbo to shed blood for any reason and for any cause. Peace, consultation and accommodation are integral to our republicanism as a race. Ndigbo cannot afford to be linked to a senseless murder or any other action that can bitterly sour our relationship with our brothers from other parts of Nigeria.”
“I wish to appeal to all political actors and youths in Imo State, indeed all states in the South-East to reject violence as a means to address the challenges we face as Ndigbo in Nigeria.”
“I further advise all aggrieved persons whether they are politicians or youths to eschew violence as there is nothing that cannot be resolved through dialogue.”
βLate Ahmed Gulak was a friend. While he served President Jonathan as Political Adviser, I was in the Seventh Senate and we had a very good relationship. We spoke during the Ramadan fasting and had our last encounter during Sallah. It is quite shocking Ahmed died in such a regretful circumstance.”
βI wish to condole the government and good people of Adamawa State over this tragic loss, especially his immediate family, relatives, and friends and pray that Almighty God will accept his soul and grant him eternal rest.”
