The speaker stated this at the weekend in Agba community, Ishielu local government area of Ebonyi State, shortly after the burial of Pa Elder Moses Edeh Akuru, the father of the member representing Ezza North/ Ishielu Federal Constituency, Hon Peter Edeh and his twin brother, the Enugu Archbishop, Most Rev Christopher Nweke Edeh. He said, “The National Assembly is waiting earnestly to receive the report of the National Conference. I am optimistic that the House will do justice to the report. We the members of the National Assembly also commiserate with one of our own, Hon Peter Edeh who represents Ishielu/ Ezza North federal constituency who lost his father, Pa Elder Moses Edeh who was the community leader of Agba community before his death.” “I commend the people of this community for coming out en masse to show appreciation for the life of our leader and father. He lived well as a community leader and served the people very well. There is no better way of appreciating him than to thank God for his life”. Similarly, the prelate, Methodist Church, Dr Samuel Kanu Uche, said that the 2015 general election can be done without the North East geopolitical zone and expressed optimism that God will settle all crises rocking the nation ahead of the election. According to him “My message to Nigerians is that, we should go on with the 2015 election. If the leaders of the North-East are not ready to cooperate we go ahead without them. But I want them to behave good and advise their children and sons so that the elections will take place in everywhere in Nigeria. But I think before then God will settle this matter. “Boko Haram are troubling the country. I am appealing to them to have a change of heart because if they destroy this country we have no other country to call our own . I want them to know that they may be deceiving themselves if they think that Nigeria will ever be Islamised. “Nigeria can never be Islamized. Nigeria will remain a circular state where people are free to practice their religions without interference. The prelate stressed that the reports of the National Conference will survive in the National Assembly adding that President Jonathan has good purpose for convening the Conference and that N’ Assembly will not jeopardize that great efforts. “I know that Jonathan means well for this country. I want to plead with Nigerians to understand Jonathan. I believe that National Assembly will look into the National Conference reports very well and give it approval” he said. In a reaction, Hon. Peter Edeh commended the Speaker, Rt. Hon Tambuwal, the Ebonyi State Governor Chief Martin Elechi, the Prelate, Methodist Church of Nigeria and members of the All Progressive Congress,APC and other well meaning Nigerians that attended the occasion for their contribution towards the burial of his father.
