Spokesman of the Arewa Consultative Forum ACF, Alhaji Muhammad Ibrahim said no person or group has any right to threaten people who are going about their legitimate businesses. He said that ACF is not aware of the threat and are not in support of it even if they are aware of it.
His words: “We are not even aware of the threat. Even if we are aware, we are not in support of that. We should remember that we are practicing democracy with its rules and regulations. Our constitution which we operate guarantees free movement of all Nigerians to any part of the country to pursue their legitimate businesses.
"No group of persons or individuals have the mandate to threaten any group or individual in pursuance of his legitimate businesses as guaranteed by the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. ACF will not support anything that will bring disunity of the country and affect its corporate existence.”
