Nigeria Must Remain One…Nnamdi Kanu Needs Change In Mentality – Obasanjo

obasanjo

Former President, Chief Olusegun Obasanjo has restated that those agitating for the breakup of Nigeria are wrong.

Obasanjo, who made the remark while condemning those calling for the break up of the country, noting that the problem of the country was not in its structure, but in the ‘mentality’ of its citizens.

Speaking in Lagos, yesterday, the former President said he prays for a change of mentality by the agitators.

Obasanjo said if he had a magic wand, “I would make one wish that God should change our mentality; I believe that is the problem of this country.”

He advised Nigerians not to be deceived by those calling for war, noting that they had not witnessed one before.

The former President went on to state that his wish was for the country to remain as one.

“Anybody who thinks Nigeria is going to be breaking up is wrong”, he said.

He, however, stressed that the recent clamours for restructuring were legitimate.

“We need to do more about the equity of this country. We need to see ourselves as our brother’s keepers. We need to share our natural God-given resources together,” he said.

This is coming at a time when the leader of Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu, said every family member of Obasanjo will die if he carries out his alleged assassination threat.

Kanu issued the warning while reacting to Obasanjo’s call that he should be stopped for agitating for Biafra.

Also, IPOB had yesterday accused the former President of plotting to assassinate Kanu and overthrow the President Muhammadu Buhari-led government.

    Nigeria can never be one , because we are not one. It’s better to divide the country in peace. Let us stop deceiving our selves

    Obasanjo, ‘must’? Does it not sound oppressive, dehumanising, and slavery in this modern time? It shows that you have sold your soul to the devil. But one thing is sure. Whatever God has destined must come to pass. God bless Biafra.
