Okechukwu Ugo has been left in a predicament after an ultimatum was issued for all southern Christians of Igbo heritage to leave Nigeria’s Muslim-majority north. “I was born in Kano,” the building materials salesman told AFP in Sabon Gari, a Christian enclave on the edge of the country’s biggest northern city. “My father relocated to Kano from the east more than 60 years ago. I don’t have any other place to call home apart from Kano.” Since the call was made by a Muslim group, the Arewa Youth Consultative Forum (AYCF), on June 8, the federal government in Abuja has repeatedly called for calm. But the notice to Igbo to leave the north by October 1 has brought to the fore barely-concealed ethnic and religious tensions across Africa’s most- populous nation. In the Igbo-dominated southeast, the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) movement, led by the charismatic Nnamdi Kanu, has been increasingly saying it wants to go its own way. Ugo, however, wants nothing to do with any of it. “The government should end all these calls for secession in the east and quit notice to Igbo in the north for national cohesion,” he said. – Biafra blamed – Source Vanguard : https://www.vanguardngr.com/2017/06/igbo-much-investment-north-dont-expect-us-leave/ |
