BREAKING: Protest In Abuja As Northern Group Demands Referendum by VEXT: 2:02pm On Jun 05, 2021 |
A group of women under the aegis of the Amalgamation of Northern Women Associations, on Saturday, demanded a referendum to allow Biafran agitators to chose whether or not to remain in Nigeria. The coordinator of the group, Hadiza Adamu, spoke on behalf of other members, during a protest in Abuja, on Saturday. She said, “Nigerian History has shown that women carry the heavy burden of war and acts of insurrections and terrorism. We have gone through it from 1967 to 1971, our men died and left us with the children to cater for out of nothing, other men that survived simply moved on but we never moved on. “The aftermath of the war and the sufferings left lifetime scars in our hearts and on our bodies. It is for this reason that we (have) come together today and say we don’t want another war, another insurrection. “We, therefore, unanimously call on President Muhammadu Buhari as the leader and father of the country; and the leadership of the National Assembly, President of the Senate, Dr. Ahmad Lawal; and the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Hon. Femi Gbajabiamila; to immediately call for a referendum in the country. “Let people choose to live in peace in Nigeria or leave, any other group or nationality that wants to secede to exercise their rights of self-determination like the South-East has been agitated for decades to be allowed to leave Nigeria peacefully, without resorting to a second civil war. “Today the Igbo nation has turned the entire South-East to almost a war zone, northerners irrespective of their tribes are no longer safe, states’ infrastructures are no longer safe, service personnel from police to army are not safe, INEC offices and other symbols of democracy in the country are being destroyed on daily basis, our husbands that go to do business in South-East no longer return home safe, our political leaders who travel to the South-East on national assignments are assassinated in broad daylight.” https://punchng.com/breaking-protest-in-abuja-as-northern-group-demands-referendum/?utm_term=Autofeed&utm_medium=Social&utm_source=Facebook#Echobox=1622894663

These women are just confused and jobless. Their region in the North east is being ravaged by banditry and terrorism yet they could not appeal to Mr President to end that but they chose to stare Biafra in the face and make useless and baseless rants. What nonsense 2 Likes |

Re: BREAKING: Protest In Abuja As Northern Group Demands Referendum by Amotolongbo(f): 4:25pm On Jun 05, 2021 |
DubaiLandLord:Who are you to talk about the fact in the south west? FYI, I’m a South westerner. I just left Osun State And currently in Ado Ekiti and just passed through the venue of the protest in front of Adekunle Fajuyi park. Speak for yourself cos you have no statistical fact to know what the majority or minority is. Let there be referendum to allow everyone decide his/her fate |

DubaiLandLord: There's nothing like 5 Eastern states.... It will be in the whole Igbo speaking part of Nigeria.... That one Aboki military Head to State carved out some Igbo speaking parts to Delta, Rivers and Benue and also carved out Some Yorubas into Kogi doesn't mean we don't still know our heritage and where we originally are from. |
