Arewa Youths Consultative Forum, ACF, yesterday said that the quit notice it gave Nigerians of Igbo extraction to vacate all northern states before October 1, stands.

“We stand by our notice to Igbo but those who are interested in Nigeria can stay.

But for those who are not interested, you can go,” he said. Yerima Shettima is National President, Arewa Youth Consultative Forum…this is not what Nigerians expected “Our mission is for peace; the unity of Nigeria is being threatened by the current agitation from the Igbo and we want to make sure that those who are interested in Nigeria stay but those who are not interested should go.

“The purpose of town hall meeting in Kano is to review the early stand took and we are collecting views of people here from the north-west.

We will also move to north-central and north-east on whether to maintain our position or reconsider it.”

We will do it through peaceful means, this is because of the fact that one cannot be living with us and talking Biafra.

“We don’t have the right to force the people to go. So, we are using peaceful means because don’t have police and army.”
