RESTRUCTURE NIGERIA INTO SIX ZONES WITH FULL INTEGRATION OF NDIGBO - OKEKE

The former chairman of Police Service Commission, Chief Simon Okeke has called for restructuring of the nation into six zones with full integration of Ndigbo.

This was just as he called for the release of leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu.

He said it was unfair to continue to detain Kanu, who has been in detention since October 2015.

Chief Okeke explained that even though he does not believe in a separate state of Biafra, the federal government should dialogue with IPOB, just like with militants in Niger Delta, to understand their grievance.

It is marginalisation that leads to agitation for self-determination. For me, we should be asking for full integration of Ndigbo in the comity of Nigerian nations. 

We need real and more participation in governance and the country has to be restructured into six zones. I say no to government of exclusion.
