Biafra: I Would Want To Meet Nnamdi Kanu - Obasanjo by Tiwaz2: 9:05pm On Sep 15, 2017
Former President Olusegun Obasanjo says he really want to meet IPOB Leader, Nnamdi Kanu and talk to him.

Obasanjo stated this during an interview with Newsweek Magazine.

Ironically, Kanu, had in the past called Obasanjo an “evil man”.

The former President said, “I don’t see anything wrong in that (Buhari meeting with Kanu). I would not object to that; if anything, I would encourage it.

“I would want to meet Kanu myself and talk to people like him, people of his age, (and ask) ‘What are your worries?’ Not only from the South-East but from all parts of Nigeria.”

Obasanjo, who led the final offensive that brought the civil war to an end in 1970, said he had seen too many wars and it was time for Nigeria to move on.

He said he believed that enough dialogue had not been done by both the government and several groups.

The former President, however, said secession was not the answer.

“Those who fought in the war in Biafra will not want to fight any other war. I fought in that war and it was an unfortunate war and I said I have fought one war too many in Nigeria; I don’t want to see another.

“The heavy boot is not the solution. I believe also whatever may be the frustration of any youth in any part of Nigeria; I believe secession is not the solution.”

The former president, who was also military head of state from 1976–1979, said economic development in the country was the only way to solve the various agitations across the country.

Some Igbo leaders have complained that President Buhari, who hails from northern Nigeria, has prioritized the development of other parts of the country to their detriment.

“We need to satisfy the youth in job creation, in wealth creation, in giving them a better, fulfilled life, in giving them hope for the future. There’s no easy way out,” he said.

The Army left Sambisa forest where they should be dancing with the python, but desided to come to the East to twerk.

Let it be known now that they are provoking IPOB in particular and the Ibos in general to carry arms.

Second Civil war loading & na them go suffer am cuz the hausas lack ingenuity. They only depend on imported/foreign made weapons.

We will do better as one! Our strength is in our unity.... My Igbo brothers living in the east, Yorubas love you. Same with the Hausas. I live in the southwest and I have seen an Igbo Omo-onile. Please sheathe your swords, every tribe or region in Nigeria is marginalized. It's a general issue. Play your game like every region is playing it. Biko, nonu, abeg.

Obj, always playing the role of a hero. Kanu's madness has gone beyond the psychologist stage. Only tranquilisers can calm his troubled nerves at the moment.

how does being a prominent man give him the right to speak the 'mind' of yorubas?

All of us cannot speak at the same time neither can we all be taken seriously or even listened to like he will anytime anyday,

Only a few people like him can do the job for us all.
