Kwara ACF Wants Promoters Of Interim Govt Arrested, Prosecuted
The Arewa Consultative Forum (ACF) on Saturday called for the arrest and prosecution of anyone found to have promoted the idea of having an interim government in place of a democratically elected president on May 29.
The socio- cultural group added that Nigerians will resist any attempt by individuals or groups to foist an interim government on the country.
It will be recalled that the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, had declared Asiwaju Bola Tinubu , who was the APC presidential candidate, winner of the 2023 presidential election.
Chairman, Kwara State chapter of ACF, Dr Mohammed Ghali Alaaya made the position of the organisation known during an interview with journalists including Team@orientactualmags.com in Ilorin, the Kwara state capital on Saturday.
‘Anybody no matter how highly-placed advocating or supporting an interim government under any guise will be met with the strongest of opposition. I can assure you that Nigerians are too loud in this direction.
Anybody who does this should be arrested and prosecuted for treason; because that is the height of insurordinatiion against the country. Nobody will accept this. I trust my northern people.
I trust Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq and other All Progressives governors that supported the idea of having the nation’s next president from the south and who will be pleased that the country has remained one despite the contrary permutations in some quarters.
The northern governors had taken this decision bearing in mind the troubles and expectations of Nigerians. The decision was predicated on good intentions and everybody fell in love with the decision in question.
The president-elect, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu won the presidential election held on February 25, 2023 in 30 out of the 36 states of the federation and most of the votes were even gotten from the north. It is even very surprising that anybody would contest election and win in other regions other than his own to such an extent.
Nigerians have spoken and we have spoken loudly. It will be so sad for anybody to now say that President-elect, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu should not be sworn-in’ he said- Team@orientactualmags.com Do you have any information you wish to share with us?
