Your People Should Forget Biafra, Pres. Buhari Advises Igbo NYSC Members by exlinkleads(f): 7:33am On Sep 14, 2016
His excellency President Muhammadu Buhari received over 100 National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) members serving in Daura local government area at his residence yesterday, being 13th September, 2016. He was quoted by Daily Post that he told those from the South Eastern states to tell their people to forget Biafra.

According to Daily Post, the president advised as follow:

“Tell your colleagues who want Biafra to forget about it. As a military commander, I walked from Degem, a border town between the north and the east, to the border between Cameroons and Nigeria.

“I walked on my foot for most of the 30 months that we fought the Nigeria-Biafra civil war, in which at least 2 million Nigerians were killed. “We were made by our leaders to go and fight Biafra not because of money or oil, because oil was not critical factor then, but because of one Nigeria.

So if leaderships at various levels failed, it was not the fault of the rest of Nigerians who have no quarrel with one another. So please tell your colleagues that we must be together to build this country. It is big enough for us and potentially big enough in terms of resources.

Those who work hard will earn a respectable living. I have seen this country, I fought for this country and I will continue to work for the unity of this country.”

The President gave them gifts of cows, bags of rice and cash for Sallah celebration.
