Edwin ClarkFormer Minister of Information, Edwin Clark, has called on the President Muhammadu Buhari-led administration to implement the resolutions of the 2014 National Conference.

The former Minister made the appeal on Monday at a press conference on the state of the nation and the way forward in Abuja, Nigeria’s capital.

He expressed the view that the 600 resolutions from the conference dealt with issues of true federalism which he said provided solutions to the current financial situation that saw various states depend on the bailout to pay salaries.

Mr Clark appealed to the Federal Government to study the resolutions and take steps to implement the recommendations with a view to moving Nigeria forward.

Nigeria’s former Permanent Representative to the United Nations, Professor Ibrahim Gambari, had also recently advised to the government to consider the report of the National Conference constituted by former President Goodluck Jonathan.

Professor Gambari who was speaking at a forum, said that government is a continuum and as such, the Federal Government needs to examine the report before discarding it.

He explained that it was a waste of human and material resources for the government to ignore the resolution of 492 Nigerians.
