Former
Governor of Abia state, Dr Orji Uzor Kalu, spoke with correspondents yesterday he
returned from a trip to the UK, he warned that if things are not properly
checked politically, President Jonathan might be the last president Nigeria
will have. He stated below
"When I
was travelling precisely on the 26 of April, I left this airport and I spoke to
the airport correspondents and I said there was a need to collaborate with
international organisations.
You see, this issue is not about President
Goodluck Jonathan. If we don’t take time and work together as Nigerians,
Jonathan might be the last Nigerian President. Jonathan might be the Gorbachev
of Nigeria. And that is the truth, so we better wake up.
Political class,
business class, military, civilians must now stand up to work for our internal
security. Internal security is more important than anything we have done and I
believe that once we are able to come together Nigeria will be alright. As of
now the country is in pains; the country is in problem and some people are
taking it very lightly.
We are
suffering from pains of our people; we are suffering from pains of the Nigerian
system. This is not about which part of the country you come from, it is about
Nigeria. Nigerian people should take what is happening seriously and I am
surprised that the political class and the private sector are still joking with
this matter.
This is a serious matter. Anybody’s child can be kidnapped;
whether it is at Chibok or any other place, Nigerian should take this matter
seriously. Can you imagine how many Nigerians that have been killed; how many
of us that have been wounded. I want people to be as wise as my grandmother.
I
want people to take this matter seriously. Those girls kidnapped are our
sisters; they are our daughters. It is because none of us has lost anybody that
is why to some people; it is looking like a joke. We should stop taking this as
a joke and take the matter very seriously in order to move forward.
We should
not lose what we have. We should be able to come together as one family and
fight because if we don’t take time; I repeat it for the second time, Jonathan
will be the last president of the name Nigeria. Government can negotiate
formerly or informally.
It can send agents to negotiate on its behalf without
getting involved. The US does this in Afghanistan and other places. It can
negotiate formerly or informally” he said
