Senator Abubakar Girei represented Adamawa Central Senatorial Zone from 1999 to 2003. In this interview, he recalled his experience as first timer lawmaker, at the time, the kind of politician former President Obasanjo is, efforts made by a group of Senators to truncate Obasanjo’s third term ambition, and why he (Obasanjo) would never accept that he was behind such an ambition.

What is your take on Professor Ango Abdullahi’s position that the North was now ready for Nigeria’s break up?

I am sure he did not speak on behalf of the ACF; he may have spoken on behalf of the elders’ forum or made a personal comment. This definitely is not the stand of the ACF. I think what is the popular opinion in the north today is that if anybody insists on breaking away from this country, we will not fight to prevent him from leaving the country, he is free to do so. Those that are making noise about breaking away from this country are the greatest beneficiaries of this country. In fact, they are the owners of this country. I know the generality of the people from south- east in particular, where the noise about Biafra is coming from, are totally not in support of the breakup of this country because they know they own Nigeria, the bigger, the better for all of us. Go to my village, you will find them there. Go to anywhere in this country, they are there, living comfortably, owning properties. There is no single tribe in this country that can boast of that. The fact that they allowed some miscreants, of course, I call them miscreants or ill informed persons among them, to be peddling this type of story to their detriment is not surprising, it is because they are not very sagacious politicians. This is making them to lose out in many fronts in this country. Unless and until the Igbo come out and identify solely with the Federal Fepublic of Nigeria as one united entity, I don’t see how an Igbo man will aspire and succeed in being President of Nigeria. I don’t see it. You cannot be talking about Biafra, and then be talking about being President of Nigeria.

Most of these people are confused...So because the SE people own's Nigeria, their region will be marginalized in all FRONTS? The people the buzo said own Nigeria are not represented in the highest security organ of their country...Their federal roads are the worst in the country...There is no visible federal presence in the region...Don't you see the sham in this man's statement?

Even if biafra come some will still stay stick with nigeria so what are you saying # check my signature for TBC

do u know s.west has more oil than s.east.ignorant ipob yoot.after s south,south west contribute the most to the country wealth,that's why u Ugansans drag s.south to beerfraud.

s.east should control there drug transport,baby factory nd ugu exportation

80% of Igbos will Biafra, while 20% will say the presidency

Btwn 1970 and 2000 we identified with Nigeria what did it fetch us
Oppression, suppression, dismemberment of our territories and once in a while massacres by either islamofascists in the North or Fulani herdsmen here in the South.

Now we've decided to identify with the independence of Igboland and that's that!!

Afonja prince, there is no issue about that..Infact the oil and gas in SW is the biggest in Nigeria...but the SE people want out with their landlock and no resources...So how is this your major problem...?

It's obvious people become proud of themselves when they succeed in their endeavors.

osu slave I have declared the online republic of biafra since u accuse me of holding u from ur freedom.what more do u want.

Afonjas will be reading this like this and pondering...So Igbos truly own this country as most are saying!

" Gerie says " Those that are making noise about breaking away from this country are the greatest beneficiaries of this country. In fact, they are the owners of this country. I know the generality of the people from south- east in particular, where the noise about Biafra is coming from, are totally not in support of the breakup of this country because they know they own Nigeria, the bigger, the better for all of us.

Good for you....If Aba were to be in Kano or Ogun, what do you think the federal government would have done since? You remember the federal government was to build film village in Kano worth N3 billion, even when Nollywood belongs to the eastern part of the country...That's why SE people want out. Despite all their effort to bring the country up, they are not appreciated...nor encouraged. Why

When will this brazen wickedness end. You suppress your best part. How do you think you will grow...Isn't that foolishness? If you don't want them, you don't trust them...why not support them to leave?
