Yoruba socio-political organization, Afenifere, on Wednesday
reacted to reports by the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, to shut down
Nigeria.
Afenifere said it would not be part of the move to shut down
Nigeria for one month.
Speaking exclusively with Dailypost, a highly placed
Afenifere chieftain, who wished not to be named, said shutting down Nigeria is
not part of its agenda.
He said Afeniefere should not be dragged into such a move to shut down Nigeria.
“I always show solidarity but we will never be part of
shutting down Nigeria for one month.
“That is not part of our agenda; If it’s worthy for them,
they can shut down the country, but they should not mention us in that kind of
thing.
“We don’t want to be part of it because it is certainly not
our agenda. We are not in the business of shutting down the country,” he said.
Recall that IPOB had urged Oduduwa and the Middle Belt
agitators to join in shutting down Nigeria from October 21.
The separatist group said other ethnic nationalities should
join the Igbos in shutting down Nigeria if Nnamdi Kanu is not produced in court
during the next adjourned date.
