The Oluwo of Iwo, Oba
Abdulrasheed Akanbi, on Friday said he would arrange a meeting with the leader
of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu, to address agitations
by the group.
The monarch also disclosed he
would meet with some significant traditional rulers in the South East, to seek
an end to the tension in the region.
Speaking on Friday at a public
lecture and conferment of the Distinguished Service Award on the Chairman of
the Oyo State Chapter, Nigeria Union of Journalists, Wunmi Faniran, and others,
Oba Akanbi condemned the spate of violence in the Southe East.
“As a father of all Nigerians,
I’m visiting the Southeast soon to mediate for the sustenance of ‘one Nigeria’
because when elders are in the market, a child’s head shouldn’t drop.
“I will personally meet the IPOB
leader, Nnamdi Kanu, and some notable traditional rulers and I’m optimistic it
(the meeting) will yield peace.
“It is unfortunate the (IPOB)
threat came at a time we have a serious government ready to fight the genocidal
disease (corruption) killing this nation. It must be addressed.
“The best the agitators should be
doing is praying for this government and (making) not secession threat. The
country has been in mess owing to maladministration.
“Such has promoted the
proliferation of militant syndicates in Nigeria. If the government is
responsible, the spate of insurgencies will be decimated,” he said.
So, Buhari administration is "the serious government" fighting Corruption...???!We shall all be alive to witness the end of this "Serious government" then we shall know how "Serious" Buhari has been. ..Well, as events are unfolding...
