An erstwhile
member of Senator Femi Okurounmu led Committee on National Conference,
Col Tony Nyiam, (rtd), has said that people of the South West geo-political
zone have been marginalised by the Federal Government under President Goodluck
Jonathan.
According to him: “The
development has stopped people of the zone from occupying the
number one to seven in the nations order of protocol.
While noting the leadership role and
the sacrifice the people of the zone had made to the socio-economic and
political development of Nigeria in the past, Nyiam called on the President to
re- dress the issue.
Speaking as a lead speaker
during a colloquium organised by Oodua Initiative, in Ado Ekiti
yesterday, he condemned how the zone, which he described as the flagship
of Nigeria, “is being marginalised in all fronts by the
present administration.”
Nyiam, who was delivering a paper
entitled, ‘The Imperative of National Conference to the Unity and Development
of Nigeria,’ organised by Oodua Intiatives, stated that the trend should not
continue.
Speaking earlier, the President of
the group, Dr. Olusanya Awosan, however, exonerated President Jonathan of
blame, saying the President supported Hon. Mulikat Akande from Oyo State
for the position of the Speaker of House of Representatives, which he
said some political actors from the zone worked against.
