Bisi Akande, former interim chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), says the Yoruba will be at war for 100 years if Nigeria breaks up.
Speaking at the inauguration of a project by Adebayo Adelabu, a former deputy governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), in Ibadan on Monday, Akande said those calling for a Yoruba nation should have a rethink.
The former governor of Osun said the Yoruba breaking away from Nigeria may lead to bloodshed and an avoidable civil war “that would further decimate the people”.
“Those agitating for a Yoruba nation should have a rethink. This country must remain united to save it from war,” NAN quoted him as saying.
“Yoruba will be in war for another 100 years if Nigeria is allowed to break.”
