The Pan Niger Delta Forum has said that the statement credited to Mamman Daura, nephew of the President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari , was capable of creating tension in the country.
Recall that Daura had said that rotational presidency should be jettisoned, while the next president of the country in 2023 should emerge based on competence.The forum, in a statement by its National Publicity Secretary, Mr Ken Robinson, said, “That kind of statement is not only insensitive, but most unfortunate. It is unarguably capable of creating unnecessary tension in the country.
“Surprising, that seemed not to bother the northern leader, who is reportedly a close confidant of Mr President.” MASSOB said the desperation and lack of competence by the North to move the nation forward had forced some Nigerian ethnic groups to begin to consider a breakaway from the country.The PUNCHOkereafor advised the Igbo to listen to the President’s nephew and intensify the struggle for Biafra.
