ACF Boss Accuses Northern Elders Of Betrayal. by Nobody: 2:50am On Jun 21, 2013 |
KADUNA—The National Chairman of the Arewa Consultative Forum, ACF, Alhaji Mohammed Aliko has accusedsome members of both the ACF and the Northern Elders Council, NEC, of betraying the north by endorsing President Goodluck Jonathan for a second term in office, contrary to the north’s position that it was their turn to rule the country in 2015. Aliko spoke in Kaduna yesterday during the opening ceremony of ACF’s annual general meeting. According to Aliko, some ACF and NEC members have betrayed the North by meeting President Jonathan and affirming their support for him for the 2015 general elections and decried the ongoing political campaign ahead the elections, saying it was affecting the quality of governance in the country. He said: “It is very sad that the Presidency has employed the divideand rule tactics against the North. Itis very glaring, because we noticed with dismay that some members of this organisation have gone to the President and assured him that he must contest for 2015 election. “We are really surprised that some northerners that went there are also members of ACF. I am speaking particularly of two gentlemen. The two gentlemen I am referring to, one is a member ofthe ACF and the other is of the Northern Elders’ Council. The ACF member is General Lawrence Onoja, rtd. He was actually part of the group that went to see the President (with elders of the South-South). Also, one of the Northern Elders Forum, is Senator John Wash Pam. He was there. “We are surprised that they have really gone to see the President. Weare particularly sad because General Onoja is here with us in ACF.We went to Maiduguri together when we went to see Dr. Ahmed Datti, (the President, Supreme Council of Sharia in Nigeria, SCSN) and Onoja was with us. “He (Onoja), also made it possible for us when we went to Maiduguri to meet the leaders of the Joint TaskForce, JTF, and we had a long discussion with them till the early hours of the morning. The military had problems with the Maiduguri people and we thought that if we intervened, things would be better. “That is not all, we have gone withOnoja to every meeting we have held and he knows what the North wants. Now for him to turn round tosay the President must contest in 2015, using the word, must, is very sad for us in ACF.’’ Commenting further, he said: “It isthe considered view of the ACF that starting politics of 2015 two years earlier is counterproductive, since apart from heating up the polity, such early start can distract governance, more so that INEC is yet to give the green light for political activities to begin.” http://www.vanguardngr.com/2013/06/acf-boss-accuses-northern-elders-of-betrayal/ 1 Like |

No mallam! Onoja and his fellow midlebeltans have always made their stance clear. Matter of fact, they've supported you guys more than needed in the past. The people who've actually betrayed the "north" are IBB, Abdulsalam, Abacha, Buhari for forcefully taking power from Shagari, Umaru Dikko, Wamakko, Yerima, El-Rufai, Shekarau and all the northern past and present political office holders and government contractors. Sorry, I nearly forgot to mention the main betrayer; the founder of boko haram, the rotten teeth mallam of Bauchi state. Hold these people responsible and all your problems will disappear! 1 Like |

They don't trust them cos of what they've experienced in their hands.I don't even know why any state below the Rivers niger and Benue should be called a Northern state. Apart from the fact that these rivers serve as a perfect boundary between the north and the south, states below this rivers tagged as "northern" have close to nothing in common with those on "the other side". Arewa is an hausa word and so any association using it should be for the hausa-fulani people. Enough of this Northern sh.it! It only serves the interests of core northerners. I'm a Kwaran of Ekiti origin, merging us with the hausa-fulani is a political fraud. |

These problems you enumerated were created by who?! Guess the same members of Arewa. Let's forget all these mere political talk, a core northern man lack the intelligence to rule a modern day Nigeria in dire need of economic transformation. Security aside, our economy is waxing strong and we need to sustain the temple with a continued vision of this president. With time unemployment and poverty will drastically reduce but we need a viable economy first and a conducive economic Envt. 1 Like |
