Danjuma made the call while speaking at the maiden convocation of the Taraba State University, Jalingo, Taraba State.
He said; “ I am not a politician and politics is one profession I don’t want to belong to because if I am a politician, I would not say what I am going to say to you now. When I arrived this arena, I saw rich cultural display, and I was amazed at the rich cultural heritage of our people. Taraba is a mini Nigeria with diverse ethnic groups living together peacefully, but the peace in this state is under assault. There is an attempt at ethnic cleansing in the state and of course, some rural states in Nigeria. We must resist it. We must stop it. Everyone of us must rise up.”

ReplyDeleteWhat exactly does he mean with this non ambiguous statement?
You are not a politician? Really? But you eat and dine with them, and have a wife who is?
Smh.
