They deals they struck will be on how to handle us, carve us out and allocate resources to each other – NEF Spokesman, Baba-Ahmed reacts to Wike, Peter Obi, Atiku, Tinubu’s meetings in London

Spokesman of the Northern Elders Forum, Hakeem Baba-Ahmed has reacted to the recent meetings between presidential candidates and governors of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, in London.

He wondered why they have to travel out of the country to hold meetings. According to him, they will strike out deals on how to handle Nigerians, “Carve us out like carcass, and allocate powers and positions and resources to each other”, he said

He shared this in a series of tweets, he wrote; “Northerners are not the only ones in Europe and Asia. In the last few days, I saw Tinubu, Atiku, Ortom, Obi, Wike, and many others.

“We, they plan to govern, are the distractions? The deals they struck will be about how to handle us. Carve us out like carcass, and allocate powers and positions and resources to each other. Then they come back and set us to fight each other. It is all about them, and them alone

“Then they come back to Nigeria where we live with traffic and insecurity to ask us to trust them with power. What is it with London, Paris and Dubai that make them so attractive to our politicians when they want to discuss deals or untangle difficult matters? Just think how much it costs to go out of Nigeria to discuss Nigerian matters. Do we make too much noise? Are they afraid of us?
