Former Special Assistant to President Muhammadu Buhari on
National Assembly Matters, Alhaji Abdurrahman Sulaiman Kawu Sumaila, has
insisted that no right-thinking Nigerians will endanger their lives to support
the candidature of any South-East politician vying for the presidency in 2023.
He also said that those responsible for the rising security
challenges in the southeastern part of the country want to turn Nigeria into
anarchy.
Sumaila stated this on Thursday in a statement he issued to
newsmen in Kano.
Recall that some groups from the Southeast advocating for
Nigeria’s next president to come from the region had stressed that the Igbo
presidency was the panacea to the country’s woes.
Also, unknown gunmen have been terrorizing the southeastern
states in recent weeks, killing security personnel and attacking government
establishments.
A former aide to ex-President Goodluck Jonathan, Ahmed
Gulak, was also murdered on Sunday.
“With these atrocities committed by the South-East people on
record, how can Nigerians entrust them to govern us? I am sure not a single
right-thinking Nigerian will endanger his life to support the candidature of
any South-East politician contesting for presidency come 2023 general
elections,” Sumaila’s statement read in part.
“The perpetrators of the attacks must understand that if the
country becomes chaotic, then nobody including the perpetrators can escape.”
