STATE HOUSE PRESS RELEASE

STATEMENT ON THE CALL BY “NORTHERN ELDERS FORUM” ASKING A SECTION OF THE COUNTRY TO LEAVE THE FEDERATION

We are aware of the latest statement from the so-called “Northern Elders Forum”.

We wish to reassure Nigerians that it remains their democratically elected leadership which takes the decisions that steer our nation – and no one else.

No self-appointed and unelected group can take this right from Nigerians – no matter how much coverage they might enjoy in the media. Nigerians listen to elected leaders, not opinionated tin-gods who have no traction with any responsible group.

It is a delusional arrogance that would lead such a group to publicly state terms and conditions for the existence of our nation.

Who gave them the right to ask for the exclusion, or expulsion of any one, group or section of the country from the Federal Republic of Nigeria?

No big grammar here. Everyone should go their separate ways. The recent event in Sokoto proved it all that we are not one

Self Determination right is allowed worldwide and a tribe can ask for self determination for their people.

Its 100 percent accepted by United Nations law.


One Nigeria Unity beggers.

A particular section has even fought for independence. They are wiser. Their leaders then saw the future. They already know that the one Nigeria mantra is fake.
It's just for the economic gain of some vested interest.

The truth is that Nigeria has never been one and can never be one. It's obvious to the blind. We are just pretending.

Any group or region that wants to leave the country should follow the un procedure

The problem with IPOB is that... having found that they’re clueless and international community has not paid any attention to their gibberish

They inplace thought of a means to control igboland

Ask any IPOB wetin Be dia plan or make them try educate those they’re destroying their means of livelihood on how sitting at home will give them Biafra

Fools gat nothing ..

Na why dem Dey force and intimidate ..th y have nothing else to say or defend their foolishness

Said they’re sitting for Kanu release

Ask them about Biafra

Nothing

Igbos wake up

one fact I've come to understand is that nobody would've ever talked of a breakup or secession if Nigeria is indeed a great country.

..but there's nothing great in this failed country. The evidence is right there for all to see. No sane citizen will be willing to associate with a failed nation.

Where have you been all along, inside your village cave?.
Let me guess, you were born in the 90's, and history is not taught in Nigeria schools.

So The FG can continue to milk the cow dry.
The present unholy alliance was fostered on us by the rapacious white colonialists.
This is just for colonialism and neo-colonialism.
That is why the maps of countries in Africa are so defined.
The differences along the ethnic are just so massive.
Unfortunately, the thieving politicians benefit immensely from this arrangement.
They can steal with impunity while they sow discord among the ethnics group.
One Nigeria is a big sham.

It's okay if everyone goes their separate ways but have you thought of what wld happen to northern Christians when Nigeria eventually break up?

That's right.

But any section of the country that wants to leave this union entirely should be allowed to leave in peace.
