Kwankwaso condemns Planned National Conference
Governor Rabi’u Musa Kwankwaso of Kano state has condemned the call for National Conference, saying that the conference will be a ‘Pandora’s Box’ that will eventually create disunity among the Nigerians.
While speaking at a media chat marking the 53 years anniversary of the Nigeria’s independence, the governor said the conference will be a waste of time. He further said with the presence of the National Assembly, there is no need for such conference as a total duplication of the lawmakers’ mandates.
“In my opinion, the National Conference is a colossal waste of resources that would have been used to solve the socio-economic problems bedeviling the progress of our country”.
“if properly utilized, this resources that would have been spent in organizing the conference would be useful if channeled to other human development areas”.
He further added that, “Such conference had held during Obasanjo and Abacha regimes and nothing happened after that. He further stated that, ” anybody who thinks that Nigeria will breakup is wasting his time as the nation will remain indivisible, no matter the pressure”.
