Buhari made the statement while addressing the country last Monday. Ojukwu, in an interview with Punch, claimed that Nigeria is “a product of negotiations”. He said: “I don’t think the tone of finality in the President’s speech is right. I have always said Nigeria is a product – a child – of negotiations. It is a child of negotiations in that when they started the agitation for the country’s independence — Zik (Dr. Nnamdi Azikiwe) from the Igbo side, Chief Anthony Enahoro from South-West, and (Ahmadu Bello) the Sardauna from the North — they were all going to London. “They had problems but they patched their differences and, ultimately, without firing a gunshot, the British government gave independence to Nigeria. “For somebody to wak...
