While the Seme and other Southern borders have been closed for a year now against our people and recently opened for the use to Dangote and BUA, Nigeria is constructing a rail line and about N30b highway to connect with Fulanis in Niger Republic with whom the Fulanis running Nigeria have cultural kinship.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe reject this apartheid policy and demand the reopening of SEME and other southern BORDERS now!<\/p>\n<p>During the meeting, the group also frowned at the manner at which the issued of End SARS campaign was tackled by the government.<\/p>\n<p>Afenifere which also commended the United Kingdom Parliament over the bold debate on the End SARS malady, emphasized that the decision to sanction top officials of \u201ca supposed democratic government in Nigeria behaving like a junta\u201d is a welcome development.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Nigeria.
