As a federation we need one another because what one ethnic group lack, the other may have. It is by caring for and sharing with one another can we build lasting monuments of development for our people. It is in this regard that I join other compatriots to condemn calls for a confederation in Nigeria. The surprising thing is that Governors who are supposed to protect the norms, laws and the oath they swore to defend the unity of the Country, are even championing the call for the disintegration of our fatherland. Advocates for a Sovereign National Conference need to do a rethink.
Nobody solves a problem by creating another.
A confederation will weaken those bonds from where our strength is derived. It will strengthen those gaps that divide us. Nigeria needs to stand taller and stronger for the sake of our people. Nigeria needs to remain one indissoluble entity for the sake of Africa. Nigeria needs to remain one nation under one Good with one destiny for the sake of democracy.
