UNIEC's 6-POINT AGENDA


United Igbo Elders Congress: Project Reposition Ndigbo (6-Point Agenda)


The United Igbo Elders Congress proposes the following agenda to reposition the Igbo nation:


1. Equitable State Creation

Establish new states in the South East by reclaiming Igbo communities in non-Igbo states (Edo, Akwa Ibom, Rivers, Kogi, Benue), avoiding further fragmentation of the core region. Example: The proposed Anioma State.

2. Parity in Local Governance

Increase Local Government Councils across Igbo states to match allocations in states like Kano, ensuring fair resource distribution and administrative equity.

3. Revitalized Maritime Economy

Rehabilitate abandoned eastern seaports (e.g., Onitsha River Port) and develop new ports in strategic locations like Oguta to boost regional commerce.

4. Integrated Regional Transport

Establish modern rail networks connecting all South East state capitals to facilitate seamless movement of people and goods.

5. Conflict Resolution & National Healing

Advocate for the immediate release of Nnamdi Kanu and pursue constructive dialogue with Biafra/IPOB and other dissenting groups to address grievances and foster reconciliation.

6. National Leadership

Achieve the election of an Igbo President of Nigeria to ensure equitable representation at the highest level of governance.

“Alaba Rago Has Fallen: Igbo, Think Home Before It Is Too Late!”

  BEING A SPEECH DELIVERED BY H. E. PASTOR MICHAEL OBIERIKA AT A UNIEC SUMMIT Distinguished Elders, Respected Leaders, my brothers and sisters in the struggle for the survival and prosperity of Ndigbo—I speak to you this morning as a Concerned Elder Statesman.  Just a few days ago, the Lagos State Government sent in its bulldozers. And in the twinkling of an eye, Alaba Rago —was demolished, reduced to dust and silence. In case you do not know, Alaba Rago is that sprawling Hausa cattle market that had fed countless families, powered trade, and stood as a testimony to Northern enterprise in Lagos.  That, my people, is not just the fall of a market. It is a warning from history . A message written in bold letters, not only to the Hausa who owned that market, but especially to us, the Igbo—because we, more than any other people, have invested the sweat of our brow and the blood of our youth into Lagos. But let me ask us here today: if Alaba Rago could fall, what t...

Okolie Raises Alarm Over Collapsing Federal Roads in Delta State Calls on Presidency, FERMA, and Ministry of Works to Act Urgently By Our Reporter Asaba, Delta State – A Patron of the United Igbo Elders Congress Worldwide, (UNIEC) and member representing Aniocha/Oshimili Federal Constituency in the House of Representatives, Hon. Ngozi Okolie, has raised fresh concerns over the worsening state of major federal roads in Delta State, describing them as “lifelines now failing at great human and economic cost.” Speaking in a statement yesterday, Okolie highlighted three critical corridors — the Asaba-Illah-Ebu-Ubiaja Road, the Asaba-Onitsha Expressway, and the Okpanam-Asaba Highway — all of which he said have deteriorated into death traps despite repeated parliamentary interventions. “These roads are not just infrastructure; they are lifelines that connect people, communities, and economies,” Okolie declared. “Yet today, they stand as stark reminders that government promises must be matched...

UNIEC Condemns Barbaric and Brutal Attack By Terrorists On Worshippers At Christ Apostolic Church

Image
  Statement from the United Igbo Elders Congress Worldwide e United Igbo Elders Congress Worldwide condemns—unequivocally and in the strongest terms—the barbaric and brutal attack carried out by armed gunmen on worshippers at Christ Apostolic Church (CAC), Eruku, Kwara State, on the night of November 18, 2025. This horrific incident, in which innocent Christians gathered in a vigil were savagely attacked, is an affront to every principle of humanity, decency, and civilized society. Reports indicate that the attackers opened fire on worshippers, killing at least three congregants and abducting several others, including the pastor. This tragedy shakes the conscience, not only because of the loss of innocent lives, but also because of the chilling nature of the attack. How can it be said that murderers took their time slaughtering old men and women in cold blood—unchallenged? How can such unspeakable evil unfold in a supposedly civilized society without the immediate intervention of s...
