 Ferdinand Ekeoma Criticises Abia APC Chairman Chijioke Chukwu Over Remarks on State Governance Senior Special Assistant to Governor Alex Otti on Media and Publicity, Ferdinand Ekeoma, has responded sharply to recent statements by the Abia State Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Hon. Chijioke Chukwu, describing them as inaccurate, uninformed, and disconnected from the realities of governance in the state. In a statement issued on March 21, 2026, Ekeoma addressed Chukwu’s claims during a recent engagement in Ikwuano Local Government Area, where the APC chairman criticised the Labour Party administration for alleged poor performance and lack of development. Ekeoma highlighted what he described as inconsistencies in Chukwu’s political record and public statements.

 Nowruz celebrations disrupted as Iran war and internet blackout leave families cut off

Nowruz, the Persian New Year, is traditionally a time of renewal and family gatherings. This year, however, many Iranians will be unable to celebrate with loved ones. Ongoing conflict in the country has limited travel, and a continuing internet blackout has left families unable to connect.

The blackout has been in effect for three weeks, and only a few workarounds remain operational, as authorities tighten restrictions on satellite connections and virtual private networks. For Iran’s population of more than 90 million, the shutdown prevents them from receiving messages, sharing greetings, or staying informed about current events.

“The lack of accurate information and the absence of collective, immediate communication have made us feel trapped and isolated,” said Saeed Souzangar, a tech entrepreneur and digital rights activist based in Tehran.

Iran has previously restricted internet access, including a nationwide shutdown in January aimed at suppressing anti-government protests. The current restrictions further isolate citizens, blocking vital information while officials seek to maintain control amid the conflict.

Iran’s foreign minister, Abbas Araghchi, said in an interview that the shutdown was necessary for security reasons and described it as an urgent measure “for the sake of war.”

Alp Toker, director of NetBlocks, noted that this is the first time such a prolonged internet blackout has coincided with Nowruz celebrations. He added that the shutdown is on track to become the most severe in the world.

The restrictions have fueled anger both within Iran and among the diaspora. Observers have criticized officials who appear to retain internet access while ordinary citizens are cut off.

“Internet shutdowns during Nowruz prevent people from fulfilling a basic need: connection,” said Amir Rashidi, a cybersecurity expert. “At a time when families should be sharing joy across distances, they are instead left isolated and uncertain.”
