In reaction to a three-month notice on the people of the south- east to quit the north, Governor Bello also promised to continue to protect the interest of the Igbo people in the state. Speaking through his spokesperson, Kingsly Fanwo, in Lokoja, the capital of the state, Bello said: “As a nation, our strength has always been embedded in our unity in diversity. Governor Yahaya Bello said he would ensure Igbo people in Kogi state are protected “Nigeria is home to all and we must continue to see ourselves as brothers and sisters in a united nation. “Ethnic segregation is unacceptable to humanity and we must continue to wax stronger and unbroken as a nation. The God that created Nigeria is a God who believes in the strength of unity. “The Kogi state government under the leadership of Alh Yahaya Bello wishes to assure all Igbos that they are not only safe in the state, but that the administration will continue to consider Igbos resident in the state as partners in the ‘New Direction Agenda’ of the government. “Igbos should go about the legitimate businesses in the state as they continue to contribute to our economy as a state and a people. “With the appointment of Igbos into strategic positions in Kogi state, we are making a strong case for social integration in Nigeria. “Let me once more salute the courage and nationalism of the Kaduna state governor who has shown with his recent actions that Kaduna will remain the home of all nationalities,” he said. Asking the leaders in the north to continue to defend the interest of the country by securing the lives of the people of other tribes, Bello said: “As we strive to move out of the economic recession in Nigeria, bloodbaths would only compound the situation. “We are the same before God and we should always play up the factors that unite us.

Good Bello but don't extend the Gesture to Biafra. Biafra is unconstitutional and illegal. Anyone calling himself or herself a Biafran is a Fellon and a seditious Character. Nnamdi Kanu must be thrown out of Nigeria now. 1 Like |
