Quit Notice: Arewa Youths To Osinbajo, Sack NSA, DSS Boss, IG Or
We Protest

Coalition of Northern youths under the auspices of Arewa Youth
Assembly, AYA, have threatened to protest for the sack of the
National Security Adviser, Inspector General of Police and
Director of State Security Services for not being able to arrest
the signatories of the quit notice handed down on Ndi Igbo in
the north and the pro-Biafra agitators.
Recall the quit notice declaration was made by the President of
the Arewa Youth Consultative Forum, AYCF, Shettima Yerima in a
meeting of a coalition of Northern youths, in Kaduna, a state
governed by Nasir El-Rufai
The Acting President, Professor Yemi Osinbajo and Kaduna State
Governor, Nasir El-Rufai had, following the declaration which
took place on the 6th of June, 2017, ordered for the arrest of
signatories to the quit notice as well as their sponsors to
serve as a deterrent to others.
However, no arrest has been made as the voice of the youths has
even resurged the more violently and decisively, evident in the
letter they sent to the Acting President days ago asking for the
Nigerian government to let the Biafra agitators have their wish.
The AYA coalition in a statement signed by its Speaker, Mohammed
Salihu in Kaduna on Friday also faulted the elders from the
region who supported the October 1st ultimatum issued to Igbos
to vacate the region.
The statement reads, “Acting president should move ahead and
order the arrest of all those behind this plot and even Biafra
agitators and bring them to book. While the NSA should be sacked
and the DG –SSS, I.G for failing to apprehend all those behind
the Kaduna declaration.
“If no arrest is made to serve as a lesson to others, next
episode will be a full scale war and lives and properties will
be destroyed by the followership of ember of disunity. What make
Americans great is the supremacy of her citizens, the unity of
Nigeria is not negotiable and can’t be left in the hands of
misguided rascals.
“While the sack of the security chief should be treated with
dispatch and levity because whosoever descend into the arana of
conflict will not escape the dust of the encounter, we should
question the character of some of our elders we found their
effusions rather too insensitive to bear especially in a country
that is sitting on a delicate balance.
“Their support of Kaduna declaration have made the North to
South, East to West our language of engagement loaded with
tempers that are waiting to explode.
“While agitation for Biafra has attained a dizzying height, on
October deadline, all you hear is languages of war and war
alone. If separation would answer all the questions, examples
from South Sudan are not something to relish. Even if we agreed
to go our separate ways is not synonymous with development and
peaceful – coexistence.
“To our elders, they should always encourage our young people to
see strength in our diversities, forge a national consciousness
that would gravitate towards positive development; they should
always promote national peace and unity.
“It is not enough to lament what has happen in the past, it is
more important and more noble to do something now in order to
reshape the future of our beloved country Nigeria.
“Arewa Youth Assembly is pressing home its demand by staging a
peaceful protest for the sack of NSA, DG/SSS, I.G of police and
the arrest of all those behind Kaduna declaration.
“We call on the acting president to constitute without delay an
all embracing, credible and sincere peace and reconciliation
committee to resolve the brouhaha.
“Arising from the above, the forum therefore advises all parties
to remain calm and guard against provocative utterances in order
not to further polarize the system”.
