Oduduwa Republic agitators out to cause crisis — Muslim students

The Muslim Students’ Society of Nigeria (MSSN) in Lagos State on Wednesday faulted the call for secession and the Oduduwa Republic in the southwest.

In a statement by the amir, Miftahudeen Thanni, the MSSN described the call for secession as a “nation killer”.

“We vehemently reject this secessional move and selfish desire of a few persons who want to damage the peace enjoyed in the southwest.

“Those nursing the ambition are our enemies trying to cause commotion, riot, and crisis and destabilise the entire country,” he said

Thanni warned those nursing the idea to “immediately bury it”, noting that it might lead to many people losing their lives.

He said: “We’re not ready to lose our members and there’s no joy embarking on a killer mission.

“The agitators should please stop it and find another means to enrich themselves.”

He further explained that the southwest needed collaboration among its governors to develop without seceding from the entire nation.

He said: “We’re not ready for another civil war or series of bloody clashes in the southwest.

“We’re all a living witness to what’s happening in the southeast region.

“Our focus should be on how to collaborate and build on our diversity.

“There has been reasonable growth and development in southwest compared to other parts of the country.

“It betrays reasonable thinking to hear that we want to create a problem that never existed.”
