Kohima | November 10
Minister for Health & Family Welfare, Nagaland Kuzholuzo (Azo) Nienu today expressed his resentment on the Angami Students’ Union (ASU) over the recent cancellation of Special Recruitment Drive (SRD) where ASU ‘the most advance brothers’ of the Tenyimi viz; Chakhesang, Pochury, Zeliang and Rengma stood up against the privilege offered to its brothers by the government.
Addressing the Tenyidie Kephrunuoko Krotho (TKK) Nousi kehou va seu (3rd general conference of Tenyidie speaking students’ organization) today here at Ura Academy Hall, Kohima, Nienu urged the Tenyimi to have a better unity among themselves. He said, Tenyimi should protect the interest of its community and depriving each other should be immediately stopped. The government policy of providing SRD to the less represented tribes is no doubt a big opportunity for the Tenyimi, Nienu pointed out and added that depriving its own brothers should convert into that of positive attitude in the near future.

TKK 3rd general conference dwells on importance of languages
Stating good instances of Tenyimi pride, he said, Chief Minister, Speaker, President- NSF, Naga Hoho and Naga Mothers’ Association (NMA) were all “absorbed by the Angamis where the other Tenyimi brothers are no doubt happy”. Nagas are presently at the crossroad where, reconciliation and unity from among the Naga brethrens is highly viewed upon by the entire citizens of the Nagas, Nienu maintained and further questioned the students’ gathered, ‘where is the future of the Nagas?’ He was of the view that opting of setting good example to the other communities by the Tenyimi would really speak volumes in the process of present Naga reconciliation.
Touching on the line of maintaining strong coordination of Tenyimi people in different parts of the State, Nienu said, Tenyimi Union/Organization in other districts were maintaining a healthy relationship bound with ancestral laws thereby building up a good unity. He however lamented that there was no such kind of Union in the state capital. He urged the TKK to focus for the preservation of aged-old good traditions and cultures in the state capital.
Pheluopfhelie Kesiezie, Chairman, Northfield Higher Secondary School, Kohima while speaking as the guest speaker on the topic “Tenyidie: U Tenyimia Kinyi” (Tenyidie, the people’s wealth) touched on the uniqueness of the Tenyimi dialects. Earlier, President TKK Neiphrenuo Sekhose chaired the function. Dr. Vevo Phesao Pastor, CBCMHK invoked God’s blessing and special song was presented by NU students followed by releasing the books of Dzerhe and Geizo da-Mhasi Theja by the chief guest.
