Copy Your Forefathers, Azikwe, Awolowo Who Never Tried To Break Up Nigeria --- Ganduje Tells Biafra, Yoruba Nations Agitators The governor said the nation’s forefathers who liberated the country from British colonialists sought its unity at all cost and did not speak of secession for their ethnic groups.

Kano Governor, Abdullahi Umar Ganduje. He then urged different separatist groups, mainly Biafra and Yoruba Nation agitators, to suspend their secessionist activities in the interest of a united Nigeria. The Kano state g1overnor urged the aggrieved groups to call for restructuring instead of sponsoring and promoting separatist agenda. Ganduje said this during the Second Quarterly Public Lecture Series of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Press Corps, held at Sheraton Hotel and Towers, Abuja on Thursday. “Let me repeat here that Nigeria is a united and indivisible country. Our constitution has taken care of that. I don’t see secession as the way out of the current challenges afflicting the nation. Instead, advocates of secession should have a change of heart and I recommend dialogue as a crucial option for addressing their problems. “The Biafran agitators and a small section of the Yoruba nation agitating for Oduduwa Republic should therefore always have this at the back of their minds in their political calculations and transformations. “It is on record that the great Dr. Nnamdi Azikiwe, the first president of Nigeria, was an Igbo man and also a perfect negotiator and foremost champion of Nigeria’s unity. The same for the great Chief Obafemi Awolowo. He never agitated for secession. “He was loud and clear on the restructuring of the federation. And that demand is even louder and the debate is on and no one is troubling agitators for agitating for restructuring of the federation. What is more, the governing party, the APC has a working document already on this (restructuring). This is the way we should all go. There should be no secession distraction at this time,” Ganduje said. He also stated that other ethnic minorities can only have their interests protected under one Nigeria. “Secondly, they argue that in addition to the big three ethnic groups, we have over 300 others scattered across the country.

[s] Emergingnation:[/s] There's no going back on Biafra. If the minorities like the way they're being slaughtered and their lands taken from them all because they want a United Nigeria, then that is their business. For we Biafrans, we will never remain Nigerians. We will restore Biafrans and will avenge our people your terrorist army are currently killing. We must avenge them. 1 Like |

Abokeys are an annoying bunch of monkeys. You see the south as rotten infidels, you kill them at any slight provacation since pre-independence. You don't like them, and they have also learnt not to like you. Yet you want to share the same country with these rotten southerners? Abokey, you well so? |

When did Azikiwe and Awolowo become our fore fathers? These people no just sabi blackmail. Azikiwe and Awolowo are entitled to the opinion they had when alive, the same way we are to our individual opinions. Azikiwe believed what he thought was right for his personal ambition which to us in Igboland is void. Azikiwe is simply an Idiot. And that is how our history will remember him forever 1 Like |

And who the heck is this babanriga dollar bribe stuffing crook called Gandollar to advise people on unity? Imagine the shamelessness of these useless politicians that have bastardized this failed contraption of a country Has Gandollar forgotten that the likes of Murtala Mohammed, Yakubu Gowon, Martin Adamu and other northern military counter-coup conspirators of July 1966 wanted to secede from the same Nigeria entity they are desperately trying to keep as one today? 2 Likes

Awolowo and Zik regretted they bargained for one nigeria. Well, both of them were looking at Yugoslavia, Sudan and Soviet union as nations to copy. |

Awolowo made a mistake, if he had the opportunity to choose again, he would never have chosen to be part of Nigeria. |
