Speakers of the 36 states have
passed a motion supporting President Muhammadu Buhari’s use of security
agencies to checkmate activities of Biafra agitators.
In a special session that took
place at the Imo state House of Assembly, the Majority leader, Lugard Osuji,
presented the motion which was sponsored by all the 36 Speakers of the state
Houses of Assembly.
The House adopted the motion and
passed a resolution which reads as follows:
“The President is urged to direct
all security agencies to monitor the activities of the groups and ensure that
perpetrators of violence and breach of peace are promptly and decisively dealt
with in accordance with the law of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
“The violent approach adopted by
the members of the various ethnic, political and religious groups whose actions
are threatening the unity and territorial integrity of Nigeria is hereby
condemned.
“Any ethnic group or persons that
have complaints or grievances should channel such complaints or grievances
through their elected representatives at the Federal or state levels.
“All ethnic, political and
religious groups, herdsmen, farmers, aggrieved ethnic groups and agitators are
urged to stop all hostilities and any act that is capable of triggering
crisis.”
However, the Ondo State Speaker,
Bamidele Oleyelogun, expressed a contrary view when he requested that the
reasons for the various agitations should be looked into;
He said: “Why don’t we ask why
those people agitating are doing so? We must know their reasons, especially now
that we are talking about power devolution.”

ReplyDeleteThere will be no progress in this country, it will keep going round until all these greedy rulers die, and must happen, I can see it coming, all the issues channelled to the president and his campaign promises where are they, since they can't remit them is it not better to protesting, been so foolish the president has shown how hostile he is to the whole world by using soldiers against innocent people and upon that labelled them terrorist for demanding for their right, when we don't trust the government any more, they speak for their family and their pocket.
