Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress, APC Joe Igbokwe, has slammed counsel to the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB for \u201cstylishly preaching Nepal experience in Nigeria\u201d.<\/p>\n

The lawyer, in a post on his official Facebook page on Saturday, likened alleged corruption in Nepal that recently caused a deadly revolution to that of Nigeria.<\/p>\n

The lawyer, however, lamented that while the Nepalese youths paid the price to sack bad leaders, their Nigerian counterparts feel subdued.<\/p>\n

The post, however, didn\u2019t go well with Igbokwe, who took to his Facebook page to lambast the lawyer, linking him to the unrest in the South East.<\/p>\n

He wrote, \u201cThe IPOB, UGM, ESN etc, Lawyer, Ifeanyi Ejiofor is not done yet. Their bloody groups have left unimaginable wreckage, massive destruction and thousands of deaths in the South East.<\/p>\n

\u201cHaving failed woefully in 10 years bloodshed and massive destruction of homes including mine, this yeye lawyer is now stylishly and dangerously preaching Nepal experience in Nigeria.<\/p>\n

\u201cI have just read his write up a few minutes ago. Let us be guided. Let us thread carefully, let us have common sense even though common sense is not common\u201d.<\/p>\n
