Former President, Chief Olusegun Obasanjo has called for dialogue with Biafran agitators.
Obasanjo speaking in Abuja on Thursday at “Biafra, 50 years After” Event forum at the Shehu Musa Yar’Adua Centre said We should beg those agitating for Biafra that there is enough cake to share and that Nigerians must treat the country with care.
He said the country’s fundamental problem was that it had lacked a national leader.
“We never had a national leader. Our leaders at the beginning were mindful of their regions. That is our problem till today,” he said.
”I have maintained that the young officers who struck in 1966 were naive but there were some element of nationalism in some of them. Be that as it may, it set us back.”
He said the war showed the bad side of the country.
“The language used in the war did not help matters, the people on the Biafra side called us vandals and we called them rebels,” he said.
“We thought we would end the war in three months, but it took us 30 months, and the federal side nearly lost it.
”Civil war is more difficult than fighting in a foreign land because we are fighting to unite.
”Even a soldier of mine who tried to rape a woman… I had to chase him with a gun. He did not succeed in raping the woman, and I did not have to gun him down.”
Obasanjo said some of those agitating for Biafra today, lack an understanding of what it entails.
“Some of the people agitating for Biafra today were not even born then. They don’t know what it entails,” he said.
”But I think, we should even appeal to those saying they want to go, we should not tell them to go, we should make them understand that there is enough cake to share. We should massage Nigeria just like in a love relationship.”

Booooooked

To me it is too late to beg. The time has gone. Most of the agitation are quite genuine and realistic. Restructuring or secede is now the option

Keep your filthy cake sir ... Enough is Enough

Gbam!!

Beg who ?


Abeg let this country divide

The master orator
Don't worry,I know your hands are clean.

ok

He spoke well

Unity Beggars aka Afonjas

it's too late for that Obasanjo

Omenkalives haters will say it's a propaganda

Is it the south south and southeast that are taking the real change serious? The rest chasing after political, economic or monopoly rule. We pray other regain their senses and join the movement for a new Nigeria where everybody are equal and treated equal.

I thought they contribute nothing to Nigeria's economy except crimes

They are all begging for peace forgeting that true peace comes with justice and equality.

Beg ke.. we south south and southeast will soon leave the south west with their kins..

Niger delta militants then boko haram ,then ipob...and after the dialogue there will be another agitation

Igbos want development..give them development and all this will stop. But noooo...lets keep talking and talking until a referendum comes and it's too late

One of Obasanjo's sons is married to a girl in Ebonyi.
AP Osinbajo has told us about his aunty married to Ibo

So far we are hearing from people with personal emotions, and funny, they are immune from the travails and suffering brought upon the ordinary citizens whose development and dignity is reta/rded by a continous inequity of pie-share in name of federal character.

Obasanjo's child or grand-child will not loose his/her place in university placement to a Northerner, in the name of federal character.
Osinbajo's child or grand-child will not sit hours in LUTH waiting for medical attention, they will be flown abroad.

We want to hear from those whose lives are directly impacted by the realities of the cake-sharing formula. Their voice should be heard via a referendum!

The oracle has spoken; the wise should yield.

Lalasticala is now on your table

hakeem4:
Beg who ?

Abeg let this country divide

Thanks for your thoughts

What happened to the RRR

Today seized foods are transported Northward to rehabilitate Victim of terrorism

Wha did Nigeria do to salvage d suffering of the east after a Civil War


If not for ingenuity of Igbos SE will still be. Rumbles
