President Muhammadu Buhari has vowed that his government will not tolerate any form of agitation intended to frustrate stability and unity of the country.
The President stated this recently in Qatar while granting an interview to a foreign television organisation.
He said those behind the Biafran movement have failed to reflect on the damage which the civil war of 1967 to 1970 caused the country leading to loss of lives and property worth billions of naira.
According to the President: “At least two millions Nigerians were killed in the Biafra war. And for somebody to wake up may be they weren’t born. Looking for Biafra after two millions people were killed, they are joking with security and Nigeria won’t tolerate Biafra.”
The administration of Buhari has always maintained that Nigeria’s unity is a priority for the country and that while peaceful pro-Biafran protests are welcome; demanding the separation of the Biafran territories is against the Constitution.
