The pan-northern socio-
political organisation, Arewa
Consultative Forum, on
Sunday asked the
Indigenous People of Biafra
and the Movement for the
Actualisation of the
Sovereign State of Biafra to
jettison their current
agitation for the Republic of
Biafra.
The forum cautioned the
agitators against dragging
the country into another
“bout of Civil War.”
The issue of Biafra,
according to the northern
body, had been settled 45
years ago after the brutal
Civil War in which over two
million Nigerians died.
The National Publicity
Secretary of the ACF,
Muhammadu Ibrahim, in a
statement in Kaduna noted
that it was most sad and
unfortunate that 45 years
after Nigerians ended the
war and resolved to unite
for the nation’s progress,
“some people are instigating
innocent youths to stage
irresponsible protest.”
The forum called on Igbo
youths and all Nigerians to
channel their energy into
useful venture rather than
allow themselves to be used
for futile agitation.
The statement read in part,
“The meeting noted with
serious concern the
continued spate of protests
by the members of the
Indigenous People of Biafra
and the Movement for the
Actualisation of Sovereign
State of Biafra in the South-
East and South-South states
agitating for a Biafra
Republic. The issue of Biafra
was settled in 1970 after the
Civil War.
“It is therefore sad and
unfortunate that 45 years
after, when Nigerians are
now united in a democratic
system of governance, some
elements are now busy
instigating innocent youths in
the south-eastern states to
an irresponsible protest,
which in most cases have
degenerated into violence
with serious consequences
on the lives and property of
innocent and law-abiding
Nigerians.
“ACF once more calls upon
the Igbo youth and indeed
other Nigerians to channel
their energy, resources,
talent and time into useful
ventures that will promote
unity and development
rather than allow themselves
to be used for such a futile
agitation.”
The forum also commended
the intervention of some
elder statesmen from the
North and South in dousing
the tension created by the
“unwarranted protest.”
“ACF also commends the
efforts of some governors,
traditional rulers and elder
statesmen both from the
North and the South for their
intervention to douse the
tension created by this
unwarranteed protest that
could have some ripple
effects in other parts of the
country,” it added.
The forum also expressed
concern on the alarming rate
of kidnapping of innocent
persons for ransom by some
unknown gunmen in various
parts of the country and
urged the security agencies
to redouble their efforts in
arresting the perpetrators of
this crime and bring them to
justice.

It is quite ironic how ACF are telling the youth from the East to channel their energy into productive ventures, when they have army of almajiri roaming from one end of the North to the other.

Person wey wan give another person cloth, na the one the giver wear we dey look to determine wetin he go give. "Yoruba adage"

Just take a candid look at these 1diots, who is talking about war here, you or us? Nigeria good bye

Despite d fact I'm not in support of the violent agitation of the IPOB boys,I think the north sud concentrate more on how they can develop their boko haram ravaged region.....they ve no right to tell any region if they sud secede or not,afteral they re the one dragging this country backward that make it so unliveable for a right thinking human being,threatening others for a lawful agitation is a cowardice act,afterall they re not the owner of nigeria,but if the north want to claim ownership of the country,then they should prepare to fund it as well!!

You are still starkly oblivious that Scotland willingly agreed to be part of United Kingdom. Biafrans were not willing participants of the colonial union called Nigeria. In addition, Biafra did not drag Nigeria into war. Even if Scotland proclaims independence today, I am of the view that UK will not persecute war against Scotland.
