Enugu State governor, Peter Mbah, has accused the self-styled Prime Minister of the Biafra Republic Government in Exile (BRGIE), Simon Ekpa, of feeding on the emotions and suffering of Igbo people to hold them hostage.
The governor who stated this on Saturday when he received members of the House of Representatives Committee on National Security and Intelligence, during an oversight working visit to the state, said the Finland-based Ekpa was taking advantage of the people of the South-East to manipulate them at will for his own selfish interests.
He however, called on the people to reject new calls by Ekpa for another sit-at-home as such would further impoverish them and truncate their businesses.
