Former President Olusegun Obasanjo says the country must
address the issue of restructuring in order to prevent a serious problem.
Obasanjo said this at the first memorial lecture Fredrick
Fasehun, founder Oodua Peoples Congress (OPC), in Lagos state, on Saturday.
The elder statesman, who added that the country could not
afford another war, said he would keep fighting for the country until he dies.
“I will continue to fight for Nigeria’s unity until I die.
But this fight is not to make my children and my race second class citizens,”
he said.
“When I was elected president the agitation was true
federalism but now it is restructuring. If we don’t address it they may go from
restructuring to self-determination and this will be a serious problem.
“If Boko Haram can get external support, any group that
decided to go will get support from within and outside. So we must address the
issue now.
“The language we are using to address ourselves across the
region now is uncouth and it must not continue.”
