Ango Abdullahi Is On His Own – Northern Elders Forum by Cooly100: 7:33pm On Jun 09, 2017 |
The Deputy Leader of the Northern Elders Forum (NEF), Elder Paul Unongo has said that Professor Ango Abdullahi is on his own in backing ignorant youths. Unongo said Northern Elders Forum could not have adopted position of ignorant youths, who were not there when Nigeria lost three million of its citizens to the civil war they fought for keep the country as one united nation. According to Unongo, “I am the Deputy Leader of the Northern Elders Forum and Ambassador Yusuf Maitama Sule is the leader. So, only the two of us can speak for the forum on sensitive matter like this. Therefore, if Professor Ango Abdullahi is backing those ignorant youths, then he is speaking for himself. “We cannot support the nonsense those boys said. We fought civil war with our blood to keep Nigeria one. So, any Nigerian can live in any part of the country he feels like. Igbos are welcome in the North, they are welcome in Yoruba land and my own village in Tiv land and they have right to pursue their daily bread and own property. “We couldn’t have killed three million people to keep Nigeria one and come back and allow these kids (the Northern Youth Groups) to insult our intelligence. We knew why we fought the war, we knew why we killed the people we loved. We knew why we made the sacrifice of three million men dead. So, Northern Elders Forum cannot take same position as those young men, if at all they took a position. “So, if the young men cannot build a nation, they should not destroy the one we put our lives on the line to build for them. We cannot allow young men who did not fight the civil war with us to destroy our country, because Nigeria cannot afford another civil war,” he said. http://thenationonlineng.net/ango-abdullahi-northern-elders-forum 20 Likes 6 Shares

Ultimatum or no ultimatum,our stance remains thesame! Let the country divide peacefully after which everyone can relocate! You can't ask anyone to relocate when the division process has not been concluded,conclude it and see if any Igbo remains anywhere outside igboland! If the north wants a breakup,they have their members in the HOR through which to channel their idealogies! 1)Why is the SW so scared of condemning the approach of the north towards secession as it did to NK led agitation,under the guise of "following due peaceful process",what are they scared of? 2)why can't the SW tell the north to represent their case through their members in the house of reps like they always tell igbos? 3)why haven't they threatened the north with war like they did to Igbos? What are they scared of? 215 Likes 22 Shares |

This is not the issue...the Igbos and other tribes who are contagious to the SE want out...We want to be able to develop at our own pace. We want to be able to get foreign loans and develop our cities without going to Abuja to beg..We want be able to build our roads without asking Abuja, we want to be able to compete without quota system. We want to have our embassies without travelling to Abuja or Lagos. We want all foreign airlines to come to the East...we have suffered having to travel to Lagos and Abuja first...We want to go to space by serious investment in R&Development..We want out people to be employed as they are recruited into Biafra army, police,Immigration, Customs, National Guard, Biafra elite commandos, Biafra Secret Service...We want to build international Stadia in our region,etc, etc... It will be a win win situation for the rest of Nigeria and Biafra...as development would be enhanced. We hope to create mutual relationship and respect for each other. 245 Likes 21 Shares |

What is Osibanjo doing about this whole thing as the Acting President? We need to hear or see some action from him. This ultimatum threat issue is a recipe for chaos and national catastrophe. No same mind (except those who think they can benefit from it) should take it lightly. 17 Likes 2 Shares |

KINGinVAHALA: This is why Hausa Fulani killed MKO and KUDIRAT. If your brother is arrested, you have constitutional right to support him irrespective of the crime he is accused of until the court decides his fate, this is what the Igbos are doing.

Kyase: Neither do Igbos...If Igbos hated any tribe they won't be investing in every region where they live...They would have behaved like the Yorubas who would never develop any where other than their region. But what do Igbos get in return? Exclusion, suppression, subjugation, quota system, marginalization, servititude in their own country...How long will a people be ready to take that? I prefer to have Biafra and suffer, than to be in Nigerian and be second class citizen. I have heard some easterners changing their names to Hausa names, in order to get a favour? 62 Likes 5 Shares |
