The Northern Awareness Movement (NAM) has berated the
unrelenting verbal attacks on the person of Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, by the
Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike, describing his attacks as a smear campaign
against the entire Northern region of the country.
Its coordinator, Muhammed Inuwa, in a statement issued
Thursday, while reacting to the uncontrollable attacks of Wike against Atiku,
said that it has become imperative to call Wike to order and call his bluff
before he sets the entire country on fire with his verbal diarrhea.
The crisis in the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) started as
a result of Wike’s failure to secure the party’s presidential ticket.
However, efforts to pacify Wike’s camp have since been met
with stiff resistance.
Inuwa noted that since all attempts to pacify Wike and his
camp have not been reciprocated, it was now important to note that there is an
undertone to the whole crisis.
The group made it clear that other sister Arewa groups would
not hesitate to treat Wike and his cohorts as an enemy of the North, if they
persist with their constant attacks on the region.
“We have gotten credible intelligence that the entire crisis
is targeted at a particular section of the country, which is the North.
“We have it on good authority and evidence abounds with
facts and figures at various times that Wike and his men have gone to press to
disparage the North.
“We hereby conclude, without any iota of doubt, that Wike
and his group have drawn the battle line with the North. The Northern Awareness
Movement hereby calls on every well-meaning and patriotic citizen of this
country to prevail on Wike to put a stop to any attempt to undermine the
North,” Inuwa said.
