We need to come together and support Mr. President to overcome the insurgency which is characterised by external militias who are paid for the purpose,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI know very clearly that they have basic interest in our natural resources, especially our tantalite and cobalt-related derivatives, as well as diamond and gold. As you know, what this international community does for Africa, once they see large deposit of natural resources, they will be glad to see such country go to war.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOn one side, they\u2019re funding enemies of state; on the other hand, they\u2019re funding secessionists so that they can be in the business of guns.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Speaking on his defection from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to the All Progressives Congress (APC), Ayade said while he still respects his former party, he decamped because he trusts Buhari\u2019s leadership.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI am one of the strong Nigerian governors who have risen beyond party lines and ethnic lines by virtue of my education and exposure. My choice to join APC is generating a lot of concern for the PDP occasioned by the fact that it came as a rude shock. And sincerely, it is indeed a rude shock because until I defected, I was a very strong member of the party in truth and in spirit,\u201d the governor said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m not here to discuss PDP, because I still have my respects or regards for that party. It\u2019s a party that gave me opportunity to be a senator. It\u2019s a party that gave opportunity to be a governor. And so, at all times, I have chosen to focus on APC and my dreams and reasons for my movement to a APC.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI moved into the APC because if my personal relationship with Mr. President. I have watched him and I find honesty, integrity and I see his wish and commitment to the federal republic of Nigeria. To that extent, I have a leader that I trust.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He faulted the activities of the opposition, especially in matters relating to insecurity, and called on all Nigerians to work with the present administration to foster peace.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe increasing insecurity in Nigeria suffers attacks from extraneous aggressors, paid militia and bandits. The opposition party only celebrates that because they believe it gives them a chance to win in 2023. So, opposition becomes very cannibalistic. You rejoice over the bloodbath in your country; you rejoice over the level of insurgency and killings in your country just because you are playing opposition,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Governor of Cross River state, Ben Ayade has accused foreign countries of supporting agitators for secession.
