AREWA Consultative Forum, ACF, and the Northern Elders Forum, NEF, have unanimously resolved to ensure that power returned to the Northern part of Nigeria in 2015.

The groups also said the North willingly conceded power to the south in 2011, to give the zone a feeling of belonging.

Briefing newsmen yesterday in Kaduna, spokesman of the groups, Prof. Ango Abdullahi called on President Goodluck Jonathan to order an immediate cessation of hostilities in Rivers State and stop using the Nigeria Police to settle political disputes.
