Watch your Utterances-Eze(Dr.) Anozie to Ethnic Groups
Leaders of ethnic groups in Nigeria have been called upon to warn their members to desist from making unguarded statements.
This call was made by the Ezendigbo of Ibadan and Oyo state, who is also the chairman of the A\ssociation of Non-Indigienes Traditional Heads in the state, Eze(Dr.) Alex Anozie in a Facebook post on his timeline.
''All ethnic groups in Nigeria should talk to and caution their careless talkers in the interest of our country, Nigeria.''
Advice to Town Unions and Associations
My advice to members of town unions in Oyo state and other places is that they should shine their eyes and make sure they attend meetings regularly and be carried along with what is going on in their meetings. They should not just leave everything to the leadership alone, because there are situations, wherein, in some town union meetings/association meetings, some, not all, of them, their leadership has been bought over by some people who may not be willing to do the right thing in society, because of their selfish interests and their leadership, on the fact that they have been bought over would now keep oon misleading the union or asociation into doing the wrong things, instead of the right things.
The leadership now overshadow them, and in the process, follows the union derails and follows the wrong track which may even be unlawful, which eventually becomes a risk to the peace of society. For instance, an association or town union can critically look into any matter and agree on the way they want to go, the majority, and they commence on that journey.
Now along the way, some of their leaders are bought over either with contracts, patronage or whatever.These forces that bought them over, are forces who want to destroy their agreement on the way they are going.
Now the leadership decides to derail their agreed movement, thereby causing trouble within the group and society at large.
So, if any town union or association wants to choose their leaders, they should be leaders with integrity, selflessness and the fear of God, not long-throated leaders.
So, they should try to make sure that they know what is going on in their town union or association meetings.
