A Socio-cultural organization Ebira Youth Congress, (EYC) has disassociated itself from Natasha homecoming held in her Country home in Ihima, Okehi Local Government Area of Kogi State.
In a statement signed by EFC President Comrade Ahmed Saka Bachido on Thursday, noted that the association is trying to unearth the identity of those mischief makers who printed the banner in their name.
The statement reads in part " Our attention has been drawn to a printed banner with the inscription: "The Youth of Kogi Central Are Proud of You, We are Solidly Behind You". Whilst we are seriously trying to unearth the identity of those mischief makers who printed the banner in our name, EYC takes serious exception to this glaring and flagrant impersonation.
"We condemned in strong terms, the sinister motive of those impostors for misrepresenting EYC as a political support organisation. While we described them as charlatans who are hellbent to tarnish the image of this umbrella youth body of Ebira people.
" We equally warned them to retract their steps as we are willing and ready to confront them with their falsehood. EYC was founded as an apolitical organisation and its primary assignment is conceived to frontally defend and promote the interests of our fatherland.
3. To put the record straight, EYC has ever remained an apolitical organisation since its creation, and we dissociate ourselves from the activity of those impersonators for impugning the integrity of this esteemed socio-cultural organisation by affiliating its leadership to a political gathering particularly, the homecoming of Senator Natasha Akpoti Uduaghan without our prior knowledge.
"Therefore, EYC states without equivocation that such political outing associated with its leadership abhors the very essence of its creation, and it is an attempts by some mischief makers to rubbish the image of its present leadership before the general public.
" As the umbrella youth organisation of Ebira people both at home and in diaspora, we usually remain apolitical in any political contest that concerns the sons and daughters of Ebiraland whilst upholding its basic programmes which are anchored on community activism, strong advocacy for societal development and peaceful coexistence.
"EYC has remained and it will continue to remain as a unified organisation that is poised with undiluted commitment to strengthening the bonds and deepening cooperation of Ezianebira regardless of political persuasions and religious creeds. This is the original philosophy which underpinned its creation for nearly a quarter of a century".
