Biafra: Shehu Sani Commends Ngige Over Support For United Nigeria

The former lawmaker representing Kaduna central senatorial district, Shehu Sani, has reacted to the statement of the Minister of Labour and Employment, Chris Ngige against Biafra agitation in the Southeast of Nigeria.

The human right activist in a post on his Facebook page commended the minister for his courage to support one Nigeria.

Ngige while speaking Igbo leaders from the 19 northern states and the FCT had warned people sponsoring propaganda against the Buhari administration to desist for the interest of national unity.

The minister said, “Infrastructure wise we have gotten our fair share.”

“We are there in the Federal Executive Council. FEC is composed of ministers one per state. But President Buhari gave us six ministers.”

“Much more importantly, the propaganda against this government in the Southeast should stop.”

Sani in his reaction wrote, “Dr Chris Ngige has made an unambiguous stand against secession and secessionist groups from his region.”

“He made valid and substantiated arguments in support of a united Nigeria. I commend his courage”.

The former lawmaker called on Nigerians to take a position and not hide out of fear of consequences of opinion.
