The digital petition by Chief Ben Ogbonna, now reverberating across the nation, is more than just a document of grievances, it is a critical system alert for Nigeria's leadership. 

From our vantage point at ITREALMS, we see this as an urgent test of our federation's commitment to equity and fairness.

A PETITION TO THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT AND IGBO LEADERSHIP ON THE SYSTEMIC MARGINALIZATION OF NDIGBO IN NATIONAL AFFAIRS.

To:

The President and Commander-in-Chief, Federal Republic of Nigeria, The National Assembly (Senate and House of Representatives), The Leadership of Ohanaeze Ndigbo, The Governors of the Southeast, The Igbo Political Class, Media Practitioners, Journalists, and Bloggers of Southeastern Nigeria.

There comes a time when silence becomes a betrayal—when the price of keeping quiet outweighs the comfort it offers. I write this petition not out of anger, but out of conscience. Not to divide, but to awaken. Not as a partisan, but as an Igbo son deeply concerned about the growing pattern of exclusion, erasure, and marginalization of my people in the affairs of our country.
