The style of the agitation for Biafra is punctuated by threats of war and violence, we feel concerned about this and condemn it in the stronges terms, the Coalition of Northern group has said.
This was contained in a statement by its spokesman, Abdulazeez Suleiman while dissociating itself from a statement credited to it accusing the Yoruba of supporting the Igbo.
The statement reads: “We restate here that the name of our group is Coalition of Northern Groups (CNG) and advise that any statement not coming from our spokesperson, Abdul-Azeez Suleiman or Amb. Shettima Yerima or N. A. Shariff should not be linked to us.
“While we affirm our commitment to the peaceful pursuit of the contents of the Kaduna Declaration, we wish to restate our unshaken respect for, and loyalty to Nigerian authorities and institutions.”
“Similarly, we do not harbour any ill-will against the Yoruba or any Nigerian tribe for that matter as it is not in the character of the cultured North to do so.
“For further clearance, our struggle is principally to ensure that those seeking to leave Nigeria are given the chance to exercise their fundamental right as entrenched in various international treaties to which Nigeria is a signatory.
“Specifically, we feel concerned by the style of the agitation for Biafra which is punctuated by threats of war and violence,” the group stated.
