Biafra: There Must Be Allowance For People To Express Themselves – Pdp by ynaijaNews: 4:44pm On Jun 21, 2017


The Senator Ahmed Makarfi-led PDP has said the agitations by pro-Biafra groups is not taking the right steps.

This was made known in Abuja at a press conference addressed by Senator Ahmed Makarfi, on Wednesday.

The Party also condemned the recent ultimatums and counter-ultimatums by some Nigerians from the Northern and South-Eastern regions, saying it only leads to nowhere but destruction.

The speech reads in part, “The PDP believes that in any democratic space, allowance must be made for people to express grievances and agitate for the redress of such; this is a vital ingredient that sustains democracy and the rule of law.”

It added, “Like I said earlier, the PDP has no problem with agitations; in fact, we respect them and regard them as vehicles through which all segments vent their legitimate feelings but we want to urge all of our people that in trying to draw attention to their yearnings and aspirations, respect for one another and the realization that our rights do not include encroachment into, and infringement on the legitimate rights and dignity of others, should guide our conduct.

“As Nigerians and a people, we cannot run away from talking to one another but this should be on the basis of mutual respect, confidence and even empathy. This will enable us to have a proper understanding of the feelings and yearnings of each other and properly appreciating where we all are coming from, as individual groups and as a whole.”

Nigeria belongs to all of us and everyone must be allowed to enjoy the constitutional freedom to live in any place of their choice – Makarfi
