PRESS RELEASE
ANAC Welcomes UN Summons of Nigeria and Camerouns on Bakassi
From ANAC Information and Public Affairs Office
All Nigerian American Congress (ANAC)
Atlanta Georgia
All Nigerian American Congress welcome the United Nations summons to
Nigeria and Camerouns in the wake of the pronouncement of the
unconstitutionality of the Green Tree Agreement by the Nigerian Senate
with regards to ceding away the Bakassi Peninsula. We see this as yet
another step forward. However, the issue remains a matter with the
Nigerian National Assembly, as Bakassi is enshrined in the Nigerian
Constitution as a local government of Nigeria. We will continue to
follow all developments as we await the proceedings of ratificaton and
amendment of the relative areas of the Nigerian Constitution
before the Nigerian Senate.
