*Say imbalance producing poverty

John Shiklam in Kaduna

The National Christian Elders Forum (NCEF), led by a former Minister of Defence, Gen. Theophilus Danjuma (rtd.), and other statesmen, has demanded that Nigeria should be renegotiated, insisting that the current imbalance is producing sorrow and poverty in the country.

In a resolution after an emergency meeting of the group on Thursday, which was made available yesterday by the NCEF Secretary, Mr. Bosun Emmanuel, the group accused the federal government of mismanaging the #EndSARS protests in the country by deploying the army to attack unarmed protesters in the country.

The resolution was titled‘#EndSARS – It is time to renegotiate Nigeria.’

NCEF demanded that whoever authorised the deployment of troops should be court-marshalled for murder.

The group also urged the government to take advantage of the protests to introduce state police.

The resolution read partly, “It is time to re-negotiate Nigeria. The time is ripe for Nigeria to be re-negotiated. The political imbalance in the country has produced nothing but sorrow, poverty, and death for Nigerians. The unjust and sectional political structure left behind by the British colonialists is no longer sustainable.”

Speaking on the protests, the group said, “NCEF wishes to express great sorrow at the recent events in the country which commenced with nationwide protests against the excesses of the Special Anti-Robbery Squad and climaxed in the death of some of the unarmed protesters, security personnel, and mindless destruction of properties. All the lives lost are Nigerian and there was no need for any of them to have died.

“There must be full National Assembly inquiry into the causes of death and destruction that trailed the peaceful #EndSARS protests…. The government must be fully investigated for the role played by security agents in transporting, and supervising vandals and thugs to attack the protesters

“The prison breaks and widespread arson should be diligently investigated as there are allegations of government complicity to discredit the protest.

“The current situation was mishandled by the government of President Muhammadu Buhari because the army was released against unarmed protesters in Nigeria. Whoever authorised the deployment of troops to face the protesting youths should be court-marshalled for murder.

“It is curious that a government that claimed it negotiated with terrorists and integrated them into the military could not negotiate with unarmed protesters but chose to shoot them. This double standard that is characteristic of the Buhari administration is condemnable.

“As the country mourns the death of the protesters, the security personnel, as well as other people who died as collateral damages, NCEF appeals to the youths to suspend any further public protest. The point has been made that though Nigerians are tolerant and patient, they are not docile.

“The government should take advantage of the protests rejecting police brutality to introduce state police. This is the appropriate step under the circumstances to ensure adequate and effective security nationwide and henceforth localise any case of policeexcesses to the states.

“The failure of government to declare state police at this point should be interpreted to imply that a centrally controlled police is desired by the government in order to continue to provide state cover for marauding Fulani herdsmen, kidnappers, bandits and Boko Haram.”

Nigeria need to go on factory reset..

Good morning Sir

Radiant01:
Nigeria need to go on factory reset..

What is the essence of the factory reset with the same operators?

The only way forward

Danjuma that killed so many people to keep Nigeria as it's today is now begging for the "renogatiation" of the country? After making billions out of the faulty system? Looks like some folks will always be hyper patriotic when they are in charge but once they have been pushed away from power, they start seeing and condemning the same issues they used to defend and tolorate.. funny people, funny country..

The northern republic of Nigeria

First surrender your oil wells you got from an unnegotiated Nigeria.

The failure of government to declare state police at this point should be interpreted to imply that a centrally controlled police is desired by the government in order to continue to provide state cover for marauding Fulani herdsmen, kidnappers, bandits and Boko Haram.”


Na today

Gradually everybody is seeing d truth about d unbundling of this contraption

U were present at the meeting in Aburi,but you and your principal came back to Nigeria to disagree in what was discuss at aburi,now you want Nigeria to renegotiate,am sorry for you

It’s as simple as that

Renegotiate the country so that things can balance properly

Them get coconut heads, them no dey hear word

Danjuma that arrested his c in c

Without orders & without leave


Old man keep shut. I wish buhari will just nationalise all his I'll gotten assets

We hope they agree

Well said Danjuma

Danjuma has finally joined IPOB.

If Buhari doesn't step down then Nigeria's disintegration is non negotiable

capatainrambo:
Danjuma that arrested his c in c
Without orders & without leave
Old man keep shut. I wish buhari will just nationalise all his I'll gotten assets

I am sure that TY Danjuma's secret is that the UK told the North to remove Ironsi &
told them the best place to ambush him will be in Ibadan

I bet he regrets it now

true talk n everyone knows its long overdue but those still benefiting from the failed system project called Nigeria will never agree!

imhotep:
Danjuma has finally joined IPOB.
