The Idoma National Youth Council Nigeria has strongly pushed back against comments made by Mr. Enoch Ocheiga, asserting that the Idoma people do not owe the Agatu people any apology. In a recent Facebook post, the Council argued that if any apology is due, it is the Agatu people who should apologise to the Idoma.
The statement accused individuals like Mr. Ocheiga of creating division among people in Zone C. It highlighted the sacrifices Idoma people have made to support the Agatu community, urging a review of historical contributions. The Council encouraged viewers to watch an accompanying video and continue following the story.
The post, which has gained attention within Idoma and Agatu circles, ended with hashtags #everyonefollowers #everyone #idomaculture, calling for unity while firmly defending the Idoma position in the ongoing discourse.
This exchange underscores lingering tensions and debates around inter-community relations, historical support, and narratives of accountability between the Idoma and Agatu people in Benue State.
