Elrufai Calls Participants Of Ongoing National Summit In Lagos "fools At 40 & 70 by executinal(m): 9:27pm On Feb 06, 2012
Amazingly, controversial former minister of the FCT and Chieftain of the Congress for Progressive Change, Malam Nasir Elrufai, has called participants of the National Summit currently going on in Lagos "fools at 40 or 70".

The summit is being anchored and convened by former Presidential candidate, Professor Pat Utomi, and has in attendance such statesmen as former education minister, Professor Ben Nwabueze, former Kaduna State governor, Alhaji Balarabe Musa, former minister fir information, Chief E.k Clarke, Former Governor of Anambra State, Chukuwemeka Ezefe, foremost human rights activist, Chief Femi Falana, former minister for aviation, Mr. Femi Fani-Kayode etc.


At the summit, several speakers had condemned the apparent justification of the Boko Haram insurgency by CBN Governor, Malam Sanusi Lamido Sanusi, who had said that the practice of paying out derivation to certain states in the Niger Delta has led to not enough money reaching states in the core North which is contributing to the insecurity of Boko Haram.

Femi Fani-Kayode had in his own submission indicated that there were certain individuals who believed that they are mire equal than other Nigerians and who desire to always be in power and reminded the audience of the threat of some to make Nigeria ungovernable should they and their candidates not win the election.

Femi Fani-Kayode also reminded the audience that the British amalgamated three incompatible nations together and these are Sudan, India and Nigeria and of these three only Nigeria has not broken up. Sudan had divided into two, India into three and Nigeria is now facing pressures. He therefore advised that Nigerians should sit down and talk.

The statements by Mr. Fani-Kayode were re echoed by former aviation minister, Alabo Graham Douglas, who traced the threat if some politicians who firmed the then Northern Political Leaders Forum to "make Nigeria ungovernable" to the current insecurity being spearheaded by Boko Haram.

Most of the participants of the summit called for a Sovereign National Conference because the constitution Nigeria is currently operating and the system of government it finds itself in was not what was agreed by Nigerians but rather it was imposed on Nigerians by the military. They also opined that the founding fathers of Nigeria negotiated a different Nigeria with the British where there was autonomy of the zones and that each region had control over the resources in its region unlike what occurs today where the monies goes to the Federal Government.

But when NaijaPundit spoke to Femi Fani-Kayode on what was responsible for the strong defence of Malam Nasir Elrufai by Malam Sanusi Lamido Sanusi, NaijaPundit was told that the bond between Elrufai and the CBN governor, Lamido Sanusi is the fact that Sanusi is about to take as one of his wives the sister of the second of Elrufai's three wives and as such they are about to be linked by marriage
