“Boko Haram continued during the administration of former President Goodluck Jonathan because that government wanted it so. I don’t think President Buhari would want Biafran agitation to continue. If he does, then he is playing with fire.”
Shuluwa in a chat with newsmen in Makurdi recently also advocated for a dialogue between the federal government and Igbo elders to bring to an end, the current agitation and urged the representatives and elders of the Igbo nation to channel their agitation properly.
“There should be dialogue between the elders and representatives of the Igbos and the Nigerian government to bring the current Biafran agitation to an end. Buhari should assemble the Igbo elders and if they insist on going, he should let them go with their oil and we who are remaining will find other means of survival.”
The PDP stalwart who warned that Buhari would be playing with fire if he does not immediately look into the issue of Biafra however sounded a note of warning to the Igbos to count the pros and cons of their present agitation before taking the decision to go.
“Igbos are business people and are all over Nigeria. Those who are agitating now were not born during the Biafran war. We want to know from their elders and representatives whether they want to go or not and it should be granted them but who will lose?”
