A popular X (formerly Twitter) account, Voice of Igbos, has sparked controversy with a post targeting Simon Ekpa, alleging that he is an agent paid to destabilize Igbo land. The tweet, which was posted on Tuesday, stated:
“Another day to remind you that Simon Ekpa is an agent paid to destroy Ala Igbo. Any Igbo youth following Simon Ekpa, I want to tell you that you are a big fool. Go and look for work.”
The statement has generated mixed reactions across social media, with some users agreeing with the sentiment while others defended Ekpa. Simon Ekpa, a separatist leader, has been a polarizing figure, often criticized for his methods and rhetoric regarding the Biafra cause.
