By Luminous Jannamike ABUJA – Arewa youth under the aegis of the Northern Youth Council of Nigeria, on Monday, withdrew their threat to declare Governor Hope Uzodinma of Imo state unacceptable and unwelcome in the North, if he failed to produce the killers of former presidential aide, Ahmed Gulak, in his domain. Their decision to rescind the threat to declare him persona non grata followed the successful elimination of the suspected masterminds of Gulak’s assassination. This was made known in a statement by the President of the council, Dr. Abubakar-Sadiq Isah, in Abuja.
The statement reads, “The Northern Youths Council of Nigeria (NYCN) have received with joy the news of the timely response of police operatives that intercepted, arrested and eliminated the IPOB/ESN terrorists who allegedly masterminded the gruesome assassination of our respectable elder, Barr Ahmed Ali Gulak, a chieftain of the APC and one-time political adviser to former President Goodluck Jonathan.
