LNC DEMANDS FOR SEPARATE CONSTITUTIONS IN NIGERIA

The Lower Niger Congress (LNC) has said in a statement on Monday that if the government wants to put an end to the activities of violent Fulani herdsmen in the Southern part of the country they should provide a different constitutions Nigeria.

LNC is a union of self-determination organisations in Southern parts of the country.

The Secretary-General of The Lower Niger Congress, Tony Nnadi in a statement condemned what he termed deliberate antagonism and hostility of some Fulanis.

Nandi noted that the violence caused by “herdsmen and armed militias” has to stop as the people of the South and Middle belt have had enough of it.

He continued to say that “had indigenous people made their own constitutions” the trespassing onto forests and lands belonging to communities and the killings “would not be happening”.

He also said that ” Nigeria is now a Disputed Project” as the indigenous people of the Middle-Belt and Southern Nigeria (NINAS) has declared a Constitutional Force Majeure to decommission the “illegitimate 1999 Constitution”.
