Dimapur, Feb 28 (MExN): FGN Chakhesang Region takes note that ‘Shillong Accordists’ and the NSCN-IM in collusion are terrorizing the Chakhesang people.
“The Shillong Accordists in Chakhesang region and the NSCN-IM had on 16th October, 2006 met at Pfutsero town reached an understanding to jointly work; now in collusion they are terrorizing the Chakhesang people,” ‘Secretary’ of Chakhesang Region Zapoyi Swuro stated in a note. Even the public leaders and church leaders are also at loss to do anything now, the FGN maintained. According to the FGN, many Chakhesang leaders and “national workers” have fallen prey to the NSCN-IM and now with some of the community members working with the NSCN-IM, the Naga cause is being subverted. “Let everyone ponder and know how these transit peace campers and NSCN-IM are cheating and harming the Nation. We cannot ignore how these people had terrorized the inhabitants of Pfutsero Basa, Lozaphuhu, Ketsapo and presently Phek town” the note mentioned. It further stated that the “Chakhesangs had declared its stand to work for the NNC and FGN”. The Chakhesang regional Council, NNC and the “Region government” had also declared on October 12, 2006 to disassociate with the Transit Peace campers, the FGN reminded and added that ‘any Chakhesang working contrary to these principles cannot be considered as Chakhesang region national workers”.
Also, reminding that the “Chakhesang people also elect and appoint our legitimate Midan Peyu, regional president and other leaders” the FGN questioned the source of the Transit Peace campers’ authority to “elect and appoint” Chakhesang region’s Midan Peyu and regional president. “This is only a shameful ploy to confuse and cheat the people; leadership cannot be self-styled” it stated and reaffirmed to work steadfastly for the NNC and FGN and to remain one in conformity with the declared stand till the goal is achieved.
