University Don Canvasses Nat’l Celebration Of ‘Biafra Day’
Professor Abdulrasheed Na’Allah, Vice Chancellor of Kwara State University (KWASU), has called for the national celebration of ‘Biafra Day’.
Na’Allah, who suggested that Biafra shouldn’t be treated as a sectional thing, said rather than exclusively observing the “sit-at-home’ order as a way of remembering the people of South-East geo-political zone, a special day should be set aside to celebrate Biafra.
Na’Allah said this in Ilorin during a press briefing at the fifth convocation of the university on Thursday.

“The sit-down at home order was wrong. It was an unnecessary action. Our goal should not be war but peace. It is the people at the grassroots that suffer the consequences of war. The elite are together irrespective of tribes or religions. It is advantageous to be big but disadvantageous to be small,” he said.
