Renowned media figure Oyemmyke has made a passionate appeal, urging the public to refrain from involving or implicating the Igbo community in the current nationwide demonstrations against hunger and food insecurity. Oyemmyke’s plea is rooted in a desire to protect the Igbo people from unwarranted scrutiny, stereotyping, or blame, and to ensure that they are not unfairly entangled in the broader societal issues being protested. By advocating for the Igbo community to be left alone, Oyemmyke seeks to safeguard their collective interests, promote peaceful coexistence, and foster an environment where all Nigerians can collaboratively work towards addressing the pressing issues of hunger and food insecurity without stigmatization or marginalization.
Oyemmyke voiced grave concerns that Igbo individuals may be subjected to unjust targeting, scapegoating, or victimization during the protests against hunger. He warned that they may be exposed to serious risks, including physical harm, violent attacks, and even fatal consequences, simply because of their ethnic identity. Oyemmyke’s warning highlights the potential for Igbo people to be unfairly singled out, attacked, or blamed for the country’s food insecurity issues, and he urged caution to prevent such a scenario from unfolding. By speaking out, Oyemmyke aimed to protect the Igbo community from potential persecution and ensure their safety during the demonstrations.
“Leave Igbo people alone, please. They don’t want to protest because they would be made the scapegoats or k!lled too,” Oyemmyke stated in a recent social media post.
