Ohaneze Flays ACF’s Threat To Southerners
Ohaneze Youth Coun
cil, OYC, has described as treasonable, the recent two-weeks ultimatum issued by Arewa Youth Development Foundation to Southerners resident in the North to quit or face dire consequences.
The AYDF had last week during a protest in Kano called for dissolution of Nigeria so that the various regions could go their separate ways. The Northern youths also gave all Southerners living in the North two weeks to quit to make room for Northerners living in the South whom they had also mandated to return home.
In a related development, Deputy National Secretary of ACF, Abubakar Umar in Kaduna last weekend allegedly warned Ndigbo to stop intimidating Hausas living in South East or risk the investments of Igbos living in the North which according to him, is worth over N45 trillion in three states alone.
Strongly condemning the “ provocative utterances “ from Northern groups, Ohaneze youths called on the federal government not to treat the threats with levity but to quickly commence treasonable proceeding against them “ before it is too late”.
