Nigeria: To Live or To Leave - A call for national conference
By Olayinka Awofadeju
An online coalition of Muslim Professionals, the No Dull Moment in Islam World wide (NDMIWW), has strongly advised President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to convoke another national conference where Nigerians across all sentiments will discuss the state of the nation.
After a one-day discourse on issues affecting the polity, the group has written to advice the Federal Government to put together the committee for the national conference.
In the news release signed by Pharmacist Hassan Sulayman, the spokeperson for the group stated that the committee for the national conference should consist of representatives of all ethnic, political and religious groups in the country.
According to the Communique, such conference will have only one agenda which, “Nigeria: To Live or To Leave”.
The release stated that the group are disturbed by the situation in the country, they noted with concern that the level of conflicts, insecurity, and their concomitant confusion has reached an all-time peak which must be nipped in the bud.
A situation where the country continues to be milked dry as resources grow with unacceptable commensurate poverty of the majority should not be tolerated.
The group, however, added that the conference being advocated for will not in any way obstruct the parliamentary processes of the National Assembly nor will be another jamboree National Political Reform conference of 2005/2006 nor that of 2014 National Conference whose reports have been put in dustbin of history.
“Ours is focused and result oriented with only one agenda and with time frame of not more than three to six months”, It stressed
