Forgive President Buhari’s ‘dot-in-circle’ remarks
Meanwhile, the ministerial leader of the World Zionist Union in southeast Nigeria, Prophet Godfrey Gbujie has called on Ndigbo to forgive the remark of 'a dot in a circle' made by President Muhammadu Buhari in a recent interview.
Some Igbos had been angered by Buhari’s description of the southeast region in such a manner during an interview with Arise TV on Thursday, June 10.
The president made the comment in reaction to some Igbo groups pushing for secession of the southeast region from Nigeria.
There will be calamity if Nigeria breaks up
Legit.ng had earlier reported that Iwuanyanwu has urged the advocates of the break-up of Nigeria to sheath their sword saying it will be a calamity for Nigerians and entire Africans if Nigeria disintegrates.
He stated this during his investiture as the grand patron of the National Abuja Football Tournament by the Society for Promotion of Sports in Abuja.
According to him, the Igbos are major shareholders in Nigeria and those campaigning for the secession of the ethnic group from the country are making a big mistake.
Let there be referendum
In a related development, the Coalition of Northern Groups (CNG) has called for a referendum for the Igbo to actualise the Biafra Republic and peacefully separate from Nigeria.
CNG spokesperson Abdul-Azeez Suleiman made the call in statement on Monday, June 14 seen by Legit.ng.
The group stated that only a referendum for Igbo exit from Nigeria can provide a final guarantee for a peaceful Nigeria.
