Former Military Head of State, Ibrahim Badamosi Babangida,
IBB, has said Nigerians do not believe in secession.
Babangida said Nigerians believe the country should stay
united because they love peace.
The former Head of State spoke on Arise TV when he was asked
about his take on the agitation for Biafra and Yoruba nation.
He noted that Nigerians are against secession because they prefer their peace of mind.
According to Babangida: “It is always good to agitate but
because there is this belief that this country should be one.
“When they make the noise, they find that it won’t get
supported because Nigerians generally don’t believe in anything that would
disturb their peace of mind. They won’t do it.
“If you look back, if you take a place like Baga, in the
north-east, the Igbo man, Yoruba man travelled up to Baga for trading, he lived
very comfortably, he lived very well with the people around there.”
Lately, Nnamdi Kanu, the leader of the Indigenous People of
Biafra, IPOB, has been in the forefront agitating for Biafra agitation, while
Sunday Adeyemo, aka Igboho, has been pushing for Yoruba Nation.
