Former President Obj. insults Biafra supporters
He said there was no basis for such agitations, since Nigeria

adding that the agitators are miscreants, and should be ignored.
Former Nigerian President Obasanjo
Olusegun Obasanjo, in an interview, described the call for a Biafra nation by some Igbos, as misplaced and fake.
He
said there was no basis for such agitations, since Nigeria absorbed all
Igbos into the civil service and army, after the war, adding that the
agitators are miscreants, and should be ignored.
Punch Newspapers reports that Obasanjo said
“We
absorbed those we should absorb both into the civil service and into
the military. Even those we didn’t absorb, who we initially regarded as
being retired without benefits, later on we even gave them their
benefits. Abandoned houses were returned. Within 10 years of the end of
our Civil War, an Igbo man became the vice-president of our country.
