All the elites in Igboland are busy making noise. It’s so shameful that in 2026, there is no embassy in the South-East. Before anyone can get a visa, he or she must travel to Abuja or Lagos- cleric, Odumeje


Nigerian clergyman, Odumeje, has slammed the elites of the South East, accusing them of “ making noise ” without making any meaningful impact in the region.


In a video making the rounds on social media, Odumeje, who was speaking in his church recently, said that while other regions like the North and South have embassies where residents can go for visa appointments, the South East has none, making everyone from the region travel to either Lagos or Abuja for visa appointments.


He argued that the call for one Nigeria must be seen to be fair and just in all its entirety. He said that while other regions can boast of seaports and embassies, the South East region cannot boast of any of such.


He called out the Federal government for its recent moves to block the Onitsha Head Bridge for repairs. He said that now that elections are around the corner, the Federal government has decided to remember the bridge for repairs.


“Federal Government has come to play politics with Onitsha Head Bridge. That is why, now that the election is close, they have come to repair it. If you hear how much they budgeted for that, you will be shocked. Before you know it, it will take too long to reopen.


All the elites in Igbo land are busy making noise. It’s so shameful that in 2026, there is no embassy in the South-East. Before anyone can get a visa, he or she must travel to Abuja or Lagos.


When we talk about one Nigeria, every major tribe should have at least one seaport and one international embassy. But in the South-East, there is nothing. Our elites keep deceiving themselves.” he said
