Break Up, Military Rule Not Solution For Nigeria’s Problems, Oshiomhole Insists
FORMER National Chairman of the ruling All Progressives Congress ( APC), Adams Oshiomhole, has faulted calls for the break up of the country.
Oshiomhole, who spoke when members of the Law Students Association of Nigeria paid him a courtesy visit in Abuja, also frowned at those clamouring for the return of military rule in the country.
He acknowledged that there were teething challenges bedevilling the country, but argued that Nigeria would be better off as presently constituted than if allowed to disintegrate along the lines of the wishes of secessionists in the country.
The former governor of Edo State maintained that the heterogeneous nature of the country coupled with its 200 million population remains a source of socioeconomic and political strength in the African continent.
