And it came to pass that the Leadership of IPOB Biafra land led by the National coordinator Ikechukwu Ugwuoha stormed Owerri the Imo state capital on Wednesday 7th of November 2018, to restore peace and unity and sanity.

The meeting saw all the state principal officers gathered from every part of the space called Imo State, there was hope that things will from henceforth start working again in Imo state, men, women, old and young were patiently waiting for a kick to ginger back the Imo state IPOB family to work.

Ikechukwu Ugwuoha is a gift to IPOB, he is one of the most Mentally toughened Biafrans under the tutelage of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu the supreme leader of IPOB,  he personally invited me to be part of the meeting, I have known Ikechukwu as early as 2014, as a coordinator of Aba when I was The Lagos State, State coordinator and I can state that he has remained formidable and fearless before our enemies, he has been to prison for this cause on two occasions and remained unmoved.

The National coordinator and his men arrived very early and had to wait for the stage to be set and the arrival of the state officers, eventually at about midday the meeting kick-started, he was introduced by the state coordinator and later, I personally brought again to their knowledge what his office as the Nation coordinator stands for, his representation and Authority as ordered and Mandated by our Supreme leader Mazi Nnamdi Kanu.

Despite the unfriendly weather none of them moved, there was this joy I found in their faces, the happiness of family reconciliation and peace, the readiness to stretch the hands of fellowship for your brother again, the opening of your arm to embrace your lovely sister again, it was time that our republican nature played out.

The national coordinator addressed them, in summary, he told them he's here to settle, reconcile, fix and get the family working again, he let them know that he is not here to pamper anybody and could remove and change those who are not ready to accept the resolution and move forward. The officers were given time to complain and say their various grievances and a good number of them came out with different complaints and reports.

With wisdom, he engaged all that was brought to him, in one of the senatorial zones there were three persons claiming to be the coordinator, it was later settled as Mazi Chidiebere who won the election conducted some time ago was selected by the National Coordinator to be the authentic Olu senatorial coordinator while Mazi John Orioha and Mazi Ikechukwu Nnadozie are now his Deputies, also the Owerri zone and Mbaise were resolved and reconciled, Mazi Abraham remains the Senatorial coordinator. Okigwe senatorial zone was found outstanding without complaints and any rift, thanks to the wonderful leadership of their Zonal coordinator Mazi Nwachukwu.

The state coordinator brought his case forward on the accusation that he did not call for a state executive meeting for about ten months, he replied that they refused to attend his meetings and so he stopped scheduling meetings. His deputy was also accused of not getting involved in the affairs of the state and not attending his unite meetings.

The wrong accusation that Mazi Abraham the Owerri zone coordinator collected money from politicians not to allow the radio function was cleared as it was there confirmed to be untrue but a counter-accusation.

The state coordinator was pronounced still the coordinator but was asked to search for a successor with immediate effect, however, Imo state coordinator was asked to look for a successor because of his work which does not allow him anymore to act in full capacity as a State coordinator. the Orlu senatorial coordinator was also mandated by the National to embark on a peace and reconciliation tour of Olu within the next Three weeks.

I want to state here that whoever or however the choice of Ikechukwu Ugwuoha came at this time as the National Coordinator, its one of the best decisions I have ever seen in this struggle, this guy is loaded and really anointed with divine wisdom to deliver to his people, the Nnamdi Kanu in him is working, he has all it takes to be a good leader very meek and listening leader.

The meeting ended with praise as Imo state was returned to its glory again.
