A group known as the Southern Nigeria Assembly, the supreme umbrella
\nbody and a coalition of all the indigenous youths organizations\u00a0 in the
\nSouthwest, South South and Southeast Geo Political Zones of Nigeria and
\nin Diaspora has called on President\u00a0 Muhammadu Buhari’s led Federal
\nGovernment to arrest and prosecute the current leadership of the Myetti
\nAllah Cattle Breeders Association(MACBAN) and other allies alike for
\ncalling for the arrest of former President Olusegun Obadanjo.<\/p>\n
This was contained in a Joint Press conference by Aremo Oladotun Hassan,
\nPresident, Yoruba Council of Youths Worldwide\/Convener SNA and Mazi
\nOkechukwu Isiguzoro, President General,\u00a0 Ohanaeze Ndigbo Youth Council
\nWorldwide\/Co-convener, SNA,Barr. Pereotubo Oweilaemi, President, Ijaw
\nYouth Council Worldwide\/Co-convener,SNA under the Auspices of the
\nSouthern Nigeria Assembly(SNA) in Abakiliki.<\/p>\n
They said: “We see this heinous act of MACBAN as illicitly motivated,
\nreckless, diversionary tactics, with devilish intent to put Nigeria on
\nflames if Presidency fall into the trap of Arresting Chief Olusegun
\nObasanjo.<\/p>\n
“We have Watched keenly most of the controversial activities of MACBAN
\nrecently as it have directly and indirectly led to mass murder and
\nGenocidal Ethnic Cleansing against innocent Nigerians through allegedly
\nperceived agents: dreaded\u00a0 militia Herdsmen arm, with attendant daily
\nmass killings in our various communities across the nation, especially
\nthe recent wake of crises, killings, kidnapping and community invasion
\nby their armed bandits elements, under the aegis of Fulani Herdsmen
\nterrorist group, despite the allegedly N100 billion Naira recently
\ntangled by the Federal Government to pacify this dreaded group as a
\nfrontal measure to win the terrorism war. Unfortunately this singular
\nstride has further increased our woes and agony unabated till date.<\/p>\n
“The rude provocative call for Chief Obasanjo’s arrest is a ploy of
\nMyetti Allah to derail Nigeria’s governance system to total anarchy, a
\nsemblance of Venezuelan and Rwandan genocidal ethnic cleansing agenda.<\/p>\n
“Furthermore, it is an open invitation to put more hardship on the
\nalready helpless and suffocated citizenry, plagued in the world
\nheadquarters of poverty.<\/p>\n
“However, we implore the Federal Government to desist from any attempt
\nto arrest Obasanjo but to show conspicuous appreciation to the former
\npresident for courage to speak the truth to power.<\/p>\n
“Similarly,\u00a0 the impunity move by the Myetti Allah is aimed at setting
\nthe nation ablaze, with attraction of grave consequences not limited
\nthereto: political and economic sanctions from world super powers.
\nWe observed with keen interest the concurrent evil bedevilling the
\nNigerian state as a premeditated agenda to cause war and civil unrest in
\nNigeria.<\/p>\n
“We are completely worried and compelled to react against the MACBAN for
\nnot calling for arrest of bandits and armed Herdsmen in the North,
\nhaving continuously unleashed terror from Benue, Taraba, Osun,
\nEnugu,Oyo, Ebonyi Ogun, Abia,Ekiti, Anambra and Ondo States without no
\nfundamental arrest, not until recently on the Late Funke Olakunri’s
\nkillers arrest of suspects, though information is discreet and shoddy.<\/p>\n
“However, we shall hold MACBAN accountable for this crimes,
\nprecipitating our move to equally file a legal action and\u00a0 petition
\nagainst\u00a0 them both to our National Courts and the United Nations for
\nchampioning ethnic cleansing agenda.<\/p>\n
“Hence, precipitating the Yoruba Council of Youths Worldwide and
\nOhanaeze Ndigbo Youth Council, other South South Youth leaders under the
\nSouthern Nigeria Assembly to urgently call for a National
\n(Youth)Dialogue Summit of selected youth leaders from all ethnic
\nnationalities in Nigeria and other critical stakeholders, and the
\nprocess of delegates invitation is on ahead of 30th September to 1st
\nOctober, 2019 slated for Lagos, details will be out soon.<\/p>\n
“Based on this premise, the National Dialogue shall serve as a means of
\nurgently nipping in the bud and proffering immediate panacea to the
\nhydra headed monsters called Armed Bandits\/Killer Herdsmen on our
\nvarious death points: intra-city and interstates highways, as well as
\naddressing and setting the tone for a robust dialogue on other needful
\nnecessities; restructuring and new people’s constitution, economic
\nintegration and development, infrastructures, education, food security,
\nyouth and women empowerments, peace and security to mention a few.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
