In what appears to be the unfolding of a sub-text in Nigeria’s acrimonious inter-regional relations, some elders and leaders from Igboland paid Professor Ango Abdullahi a visit early evening Monday, June 12th, 2017. Prof Abdullahi, former Vice-Chancellor of Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria in the 1980s, has been a vocal defender of the north against onslaught from their southern compatriots, especially Igbo secessionist move. The gist source said the Igbo leaders were led by Major Al-Mustapha, CSO to late military leader, General Sani Abacha.
Nobody around Intervention’s editorial office could recognise the faces in the picture immediately! The details should hopefully follow as the day wears on! The back channel to peace might have been activated.
