Nigeria's unity not negotiable - Emir tells Biafra agitators
The Emir of Lafiagi, Alhaji Sa'adu Kawu Haliru, at the weekend appealed to those agitating for Biafra state to desist, adding that Nigeria's unity is not negotiable. He solicited the support of all Nigerians for President Muhammadu Buhari's administration in the fight against corruption, saying the act has retarded the nation's growth.
The emir, who spoke during the celebration of his 40th year on the throne, expressed hope that the Buhari administration would restore Nigeria's lost glory and ensure prosperity for all citizens.
"I want to appeal to the Biafra agitators to sheath their swords and allow peace to reign in the country. The country has come a long way since the war and all hands must be on the deck to ensure that it remains one," he said. He thanked God for granting him sound health and peaceful reign.
In his welcome address, chairman, Board of Trustees of Nupe Foundation, Major Gen. Idris Garba, appealed to the federal government to as a matter of urgency ensure the take off of the Hydro Power Producing Areas Development Commission (HYPPADEC).
