DIMAPUR, JANUARY 16 (MExN): The NSCN-K (Khango) has advised its impeached President and “his accomplices to stop issuing unauthorised and cheap propaganda maligning the respected and good image of NSCN for their personal agenda and rather take the olive branch in the offering for the sake of the Nagas if there is even a drop of patriotic blood left in them.”
A press release from the group said that the NSCN/GPRN set-up is intact with all its branches and agencies and functioning smoothly, “therefore any orders or directives emanating from the impeached President is ‘Null and Void.’”
“Every sensible workers of NSCN/GPRN are asked to maintain calm and uphold the Yezahbo and not to be swayed away or get intimated by unofficial and dictatorial diktats by the disgraced President,” it stated.
The press release informed that the NSCN/GPRN had its cabinet council meeting under the leadership of Acting President Luyangba Yimkhiung and Ato Kilonser, Col (Retd) Isak Sumi on January 16 to “assess and take stock of the internal crisis developed out of the self style and unconstitutional action of our impeached President and his accomplices.”
The House once again reaffirms its unflinching support to the collective leadership along with all the party workers, Naga Army and Regions with the exception of few misguided functionaries, it said.
The press release affirmed that the NSCN/GPRN, “being the people's government had always respected and heeded to the peoples wishes and have maintained maximum restrain and offered olive branch to our impeached president several times but in vain.”
It regretted that the impeached president and his accomplices, “ignoring the appeal from several corners for reconciliation, as inborn to their character rather resort to mudslinging, creating confusion by issuing random and illegal government orders belittling the name and glory of the NSCN and its pioneers who have sacrificed their everything to uphold the Naga political struggle and NSCN.”
