A Chieftain of the All Progressives Congress, APC, and former Presidential Candidate, Adamu Garba, has said that it is ok for Nigeria to split, because the Northern region has all it takes to stand alone,
Garba stated this in a series of tweets on his verified Twitter account on Monday.
According to him, it is only the Northern region that practically has everything, “yet its people suffer the most, with most hope dashed, gross underproductive young population, and betrayal of the elites”.
Listing the vital resources and developments in the North, Garba said: “The North is the single largest supplier of raw materials in all Nigerian industries, from food, the cloths, to shelter, through cement and other building materials available in the Northern rocks.
“The cows that some few people condemn is over 20 million in number in Nigeria, when properly harnessed and utilize, if a quarter of this number can produce a litre of milk a day, it means the North will have 5 million litres of milk per day, each litre is N350, much more than a litre of fuel. This notwithstanding, the endless value chain of milk processing in different industries. A cow, from its feeds to all parts of its body including its dungs, is a source of value, thus a cow is wealth in all ramifications. All we need is to harness its value.”
He insisted that if the North secedes from Nigeria today, many regions in Nigeria will suffer. He added that no single person is afraid of a breakup of the country.
