So they\u2019re absolutely outside the realm of the constitution.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey\u2019re just rebels, arsonists and criminals in short. So, what are we going to consider to even give them a chance to come and say their wish and let Nigeria tremble and bow before them and say \u2018okay, we\u2019ve granted you your wish.\u2019<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<p>\u201cThose insurgency in the Southeast, they\u2019re all claiming that they want their own country called Biafra right? If that is the case, is it by killing people that they\u2019ll get their country?<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey\u2019ve tried it before, do they want us to go back to the same route? I don\u2019t think so. But if they do, if that\u2019s what they choose, has Nigeria got any choice?<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWill we just allow them, bow and say, \u2018we\u2019ll grant you your own wish?\u2019 No. Nigerian government has to stand out, fight them and give them what they want.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The South-East have been clamouring to be given the opportunity to produce the next President of the country come 2023, but Senator Bulkachuwa pointed out that politics is a game of number, adding that political parties should be allowed to present the right candidates from any zone for Nigerians to pick from.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI believe these banditry, kidnappings, agitations and killings are all prelude to the 2023 election,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI don\u2019t even believe in zoning. I believe the right candidates should be fielded by all the parties and then let Nigerians choose from the best among them.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnd those who have the number, who believe in the same candidate will obviously win. Unless you don\u2019t want that which is against the norms of democracy, then, I don\u2019t know, you can devise your own means.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI don\u2019t believe zoning is democratic.
