People Calling For Secession, Restructuring In Nigeria Ignorant Of War—buhari by DasaintHope(m): 5:45pm On Jun 20, 2021
The Executive Secretary, Revenue Mobilisation,
Allocation and Fiscal Commission, Alhaji
Mohammed Bello Shehu, who represented
President Muhammadu Buhari at an occasion on
Saturday has warned secessionists and agitators
to cease their agitation, saying Nigeria is a
dominant force in West Africa.
Buhari’s representative warned that those
agitating for separation are naive and ignorant
of war.
Speaking through Shehu, the President gave an
address as a Special Guest of Honour during
the launch of the Kudirat Abiola Sabon Gari,
Zaria Peace Foundation which took place at
Ahmadu Bello University Hotels, Zaria, Kaduna
State.
According to Daily Post, Buhari said that the
nation is not restructuring, adding that most
people carrying the subject do not even
understand what they are talking about.
“And again, those who are discussing
restructuring, my question is what are you going
to restructure?” Buhari asked.
“If you ask many Nigerians what are they going
to restructure, you will find out that they have
nothing to talk about. Some of them have not
even studied the 1999 constitution. The 1999
constitution is almost 70 to 80 percent 1979
constitution.
“The other issue is that those who are calling
for restructuring and conference on what they
call ethnic nationality, if you go to Southern
Kaduna, Taraba, who is to represent them? We
have different combinations of ethnicities in
many states. Even Kano and Kaduna Igbo have
properties. The same goes with Yorubas.
“There are Fulani in Port Harcourt. So those
calling for separation or restructuring, some of
them I will say are very naive or even
mischievously dangerous. Those agitating for
restructuring are ignorant of war and its
consequences because Nigeria is a dominant
force in west Africa.
“There is no government in the world that will
cede their authority to the people that are not
elected.
“You are telling us to resolve a system and call
for an obscure conference to come and discuss
how we can move forward as a nation, that can
never be done and no country will agree to that.
“So those who are doing that should go back
and meet their representatives in the House of
Assembly and ask for whatever amendment of
the constitution. Due process should be
followed.”

After the initial gragra, Oduduwa and Biafra is a given. Maybe other nations too like Middlebelt and Niger Delta if they so desire.... Breakup of Nigeria is when not if.
