Rt. Rev. Peter Adebiyi (retd.)
Rt. Rev. Peter Adebiyi (retd.)
Retired Bishop of the Church of
Nigeria (Anglican Communion),
Lagos-West Diocese, Rt. Rev. Peter
Adebiyi, has faulted those who
do not want the proposed
national conference to lead to
Nigeria’s break-up.
He said there are several
indications that the nationalities
in the country are living together
under duress. He said this was
evident in the high level of
religious intolerance being
experienced, which was reflected
in politics.
Adebiyi, who spoke on the state
of the nation in Lagos on
Saturday, said it would be
suicidal for him to walk in some
places in the North in his robe
without being attacked for being
a Christian.
He noted that such would not
occur, if he goes to the North as
a foreigner. He said if he was
killed as a foreigner from
Yorubaland, there would be
diplomatic row but if he was
killed as a Nigerian, only his
family would bear the loss.
He identified the born-to-rule
mentality of some northerners as
one of the causes of the crises in
the country. “An average
northerner believes that he was
born to rule Nigeria and that is
the essence of the conference
we are talking about,” he said.
Adebiyi said, “Sometime, when I
see people speak about one
Nigeria, I remain silent because I
know that Nigeria is not one. We
have an agglomeration of
nations in Nigeria. I will only go
to where I’ll be tolerated.
“It is only those who are after
money; those who are selfish
that say we are a country. How
do I call where I’m not wanted
my own? Everything is a deceit;
Nigeria is a country of great
deceit.
“It is time for every one of us, if
this conference is real, to say that
‘this is what we want.’ If we
cannot live together, why can’t I
go home? What is wrong, if I say
I’m going home?”
The retired bishop blamed the
failures of the countries anti-
graft agencies on lack of political
will by the government. He said
they were driven politically.
He stated that it would be
difficult for the head of an anti-
graft agency appointed by the
President to investigate the
President, if indicted.
The bishop said, “I was a
member of the Code of Conduct
Bureau at its inception in 1988;
eleven of us were members. I
was there for 20 years until few
years ago. I cannot say what my
eyes saw. At a point, the bureau
became a god that cannot bite
because the setup was good but
the operating value was bad.”

He's 100% correct, we can't continue to live in deceit, on something that doesn't exist.

Re: Conference Won't Stop Nigeria's Break-up - Bishop by Nobody: 8:16am On Nov 03, 2013
I am just happy that ppl re beginning to see line of reasoning in Nigeria's breakup. We re not one Nation.
At least if Nigeria break's up, d northerners re free to practise there born to rule mentality,sharia, even if they like let them reduce cut of marks of all der schools to zero, we won't be an obstacle.
Also I think a referendum is to be held in the states in d middlebelt, those that want to join the north should be allowed to, same goes for those that want to join d regions in d south.
As for d southsouth same too, those that want to join the west should be allowed to, same goes for the east.

Don't waste ur time fighting with him, he is a northerner, he is one of d deceit that d Bishop is talking abt.
Haven't u ppl wondered d reason y other regions when talking abt Nigeria, they say wat we want for Nigeria, but when ppl from d north talk abt Nigeria, they don't refer to themselves as Nigerians, they refer to themselves as northerners, and der is always"what we want for d north".

Dats our problem, Nigerians are very good @ talking about what dey want rather than fight for it. we wait for some1 else to do d dirty job while we sit to place judgement. We all know Nigeria needs to break up we've known dat for 5 decades n within dat tym only 1 men had the courage to fight for that separation. Now every1 just come on media complain n complain n complain n complain. The people in power aint planning for a separation in d nearest future dat is y countries are investing in Nigeria cos Nigerians are going No where.

The fact that students have been home for about five month now is an indication that NIGERIA HAS NO FUTURE! The opportunity to part ways showed up in 1967. You guys bungled it. So lets remain one Nigeria, whatever that means. Ojukwu must be laughing at some people in French.

Doz ignorant blind followers above av been spewing rubish on a poster who rightly said MOG's hav no stake in politics. Dis is wat d bible refer to as spiritul f4nikation wit d beast! Preachers suddenly assume d role of political activists and der clueless follower apluads dem in thousands! D truth is politics is unchristian in nature n only unbelivers engage in it. If d so called bishop n oda MOG's want 2 play politics, let dem 1st openly denounce Jesus instead of using d holy name 4 selfish interest.
