Does the government want me to go to Finland as an elder and bring Simon Ekpa? – Alex Ogbonnia

Dr. Alex Ogbonnia, the Ohanaeze Ndigbo’s national publicity secretary, has claimed that he lacks the authority to arrest Simon Ekpa, an elder from the South East, because he is in Finland.

He questioned the standards set for elders in the South East regarding national security matters. Even though he is an elder, he stressed that he is not a chief security official and cannot handle threats to the government on his own.

He declared that if he were the president of Nigeria, he would immediately eliminate dangerous people like Simon Ekpa.

In a Punch interview, he stated, “What do you want the Elders to do? I’m an elder, but am I the Chief security officer? What do you want me as an elder to do?”

“If the government feels that someone is threatening them, they should do something. Does the government want me to go to Finland as an elder to go and bring Simon Ekpa?”

“That is the most impotent reasoning because what do you think that I, as an elder, should do? It’s just unfortunate that things are not working. If I were the President of Nigeria, for example, and he (Ekpa) is threatening my country. Within 24 hours, he is gone.”
