If there is anything in recent time that has brought the Igbo race together to speak with one voice, it is the relocation of Boko Haram detainees to Ekwuluobia prison in Aguata, Anambra state.
For the Igbo, it is a ploy to extend the on going insurgency in the North, particularly, the Northeast, to the Southeast.
It started as a rumour about two weeks ago, that the federal government was transferring about 47 Boko Haram detainees to Anambra. Within days, the rumour gained legitimacy, and since then, no day has passed in Anambra and other southeast sates, without one form of demonstration by various formal and informal groups.
