Biafra: "Chronic Failure Of Government Caused Agitations" - Tinubu by stephanie11: 11:57am On Sep 24, 2017 |
National Leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Chief Bola Ahmed Tinubu has revealed that the current agitation for secession from all regions in the country is an indication that Nigerians are yet to identify their true marriage since their amalgamation by the British government. The call for secession by the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) in the Southeast; the Niger Delta Militants in South-South; the Odua People Congress in Southwest and the AREWA in the Northern region tend to have created political lapses in the country. But then, Tinubu, stated on Saturday that though dialogue remains a key tool in resolving the ongoing problems, however, he called for caution on the part of the government and Nigerians to avoid any form of mistakes that may affect the peaceful coexistence of Nigeria “It is a rather curious lapse that a nation with such diversity as ours has not taken the time to give our legal marriage its proper functional underpinning. In other words, we all lined up to call ourselves Nigerian without gathering to discuss what it meant. Thus, we inhabit a nation that has not sufficiently defined its governance. We may be defined by political borders and boundaries but we have not glued ourselves to collective purpose and vision. Too many of us are born in Nigeria but not of it. Thus, our society is not a collective enterprise as important to each of us as our own personal endeavour. It is but a platform, an arena, to claim whatever one can by whatever means available. In too many ways we resemble a wrestling match instead of the nation we were meant to become. Thus, we argue over matters that long ago should have been settled. The longer such fundamental questions fester, the more extreme become the proposed answers.Thus, we have people clamouring for secession in one part of the country and the murmur of such a course grows stronger in other sections. These other areas resent that some have advocated secession. Blame and recrimination become the political currency. Statesmanship falls in short supply. The dominant urge is to confront instead of reconcile. It would be wrong to mistake this for a tempest in a teapot. If not careful, we may be tossed about like a teapot in a tempest.We must listen to what is being said so that we can determine what is really meant. Let us be frank. Many who cry separation do so because their personal ambitions will be better served by such a thing. They believe they will have greater chance at political power under a different arrangement. Yet the cry for separation has gained traction among average people; this is due to the chronic failure of government to meet basic aspirations". http://politicsngr.com/2017/09/24/biafra-chronic-failure-government-caused-agitations-tinubu/ cc: lalasticlala, mynd44
