National Vice Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP),South-East zone, Mr. Austin Umahi, has condemned the attack on Senator Ike Ekweremadu by suspected members of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) in Nurnberg, Germany.

In a press statement from his Media Office, Mr. Umahi, frowned at the action of the group against Ekweremadu who he said has been on the forefront of the struggle against the marginalization of Ndi-Igbo in the Nigerian Federation.

The zonal Chairman said he was overwhelmed by surprise that some individuals could hide under the name of the proscribed IPOB to attack Ekweremadu after all his efforts as the leader of South-East Senate caucus in the 9th Senate to secure the release of Nnamdi Kanu, the self aclaimed leader of the group, from detention.

He said for Senator Ekweremadu to have travelled to far away Nurnberg in Germany to attend the second annual festival and covention organized by Ndi-Igbo residents there, was a demonstration of his undying love for Ndi-Igbo, which he has been exhibiting over the years.

Umahi urged Ekweremadu not to be discouraged by the attack; but see it as one of the many sacrifices he has to pay in pursuit for justice and better treatment for Ndi-Igbo both within and outside the country.

He also called for the arrest and prosecution of the pepertrators of the dastardly act to serve as a deterrent to others.

He, however, advised any individual or group that has any genuine reason to agitate, to do so, through the South-East Governors Forum, the Ohanaeze Ndi-igbo and through other legitimate means within the Nigerian federation; rather than resorting to self help.
