The meetings centered on the efforts of the Federal Government to tackle internal security in the country. The Yoruba and Igbo leaders at the meeting reiterated their belief in the unity of Nigeria and the need to preserve it as a corporate entity. ![]() The Igbo leaders called for the enthronement of equity, justice and fairness in the country, where the Igbo would be accorded their rightful position in the Nigeria project. ![]() On their part, the Yoruba leaders also spoke on the need for Nigeria’s unity, adding that the Yoruba people would continue to remain in Nigeria. They, however, demanded that power should evolve to the various components of the federation through restructuring and federalism. They reiterated the need for true federalism as canvassed by Chief Obafemi Awolowo; a position the sage held until his death.
