Enyinnaya Abaribe, senate minority leader, has said there are more than 30 separatist groups in the South-east region of the country.

Abaribe stated this on Tuesday during an interview on Channels Television’s Political Paradigm, in which he lamented that every act of violence in the region is always directed towards the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB).

“One of the biggest problems the media has is that they tag everything IPOB”, he said.

“In the South-East, you won’t believe that there are more than 30 different separatist organisations – IPOB, the Movement for the Actualization of the Sovereign State of Biafra (MASSOB), there are so many and each one of them comes back to the same thing.

“Why you are having separatist agitations everywhere today in the West, in the South, in the South-South, is that some people are unable to manage our diversity, that is just the fact”.

The lawmaker representing Abia-South Senatorial District in Abia State, made the remarks amid heightened calls for secession, not just for the South-east, but also for the Yoruba nation.

The former Abia deputy governor said he believes those calling for secession are merely protesting the marginalisation of their people, and demanding that their grievances be addressed.

The senator asked the government to dialogue with the agotators to restore calm and peace in various parts of the country.

According to him, IPOB has clarified that its sit-at-home order is only effective when its leader goes to court, and there has been some form of compliance with the directive.

“It should worry the government if a non-state action is complied with in this manner, it takes us back to what I said at the beginning that there is need to sit and talk with these people”, Abaribe said.

“There is nobody from the South-East that I know, who does not feel that the way the people from the South-East are treated today, that there is something fundamentally wrong which should be resolved”.

When asked if he would accept the offer to be the next presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the 2023 elections, and what Nigerians should expect if he is elected to succeed President Muhammadu Buhari, he replied:

“I would if it falls on me. Within six months, all these things (Nigeria’s problems) will be a thing of the past.”
