Enugu – Youths and students alike in South East took to the streets of Enugu metropolis this morning to express their support to Sen. Ike Ekweremadu.



Over the past few weeks, alleged plan to remove the highest personality from the south east in the current administration has continued to make headlines.

However, Youths citizens took placards, banners and their voices to show their solidarity to the Deputy Senate President, who actually is a citizen of Enugu State.

In a statement by one of Protesters, he related to wizlodge.com saying “The problem of Nigeria still remains purposeful leadership…
I strongly believe that Sen. Ike Ekweremadu is not the problem. Ekweremadu remains a veritable tool in the Nigerian polity. He is one of the very few senators that have the interest of Nigeria and students at heart.
A few weeks ago, he gave scholarships and bursaries to over 500 indigent students and he has been doing this for years now.
The only solution to the hydra-headed problem faced by Nigeria and Nigerians is for our leaders at all levels most especially the federal level to focus on positive result-oriented governance rather than political witch-hunting, o rise above party sentiments to deliver the dividends of democracy to the suffering poor masses.
The students of Enugu state came out en-masse to show solidarity to our great leader and philanthropist.”
