You remember I have been trying to define sovereign national conference and national conference, I told you that there cannot be two sovereignty in one place that if we accept to have a sovereign conference, from Mr President to the governor to chairman we will all have to resign and give our sovereignty to that committee or conference.
“But we should not be afraid to discuss our future, to discuss our present situation, how we come about, where we are and how we want to move from that place. Nobody should be afraid to discuss”.
