The Secretary General stated on Thursday that the North is the biggest problem to the country resulting to spending of billions of the country's wealth.
Kunle while responding to the Arewa consultative council chairman, Alhaji Ibrahim Coomassie who said Nigeria could not survive without the North said the North was home to Boko Haram, religious crisis, herdsmen killings making the Nigerian government spent billions of naira.
He said:
"The newspapers reported the Arewa Consultative Forum as saying that, Nigeria cannot survive without the North. Whatever was meant by that statement credited to the Arewa Consultative Forum chairman remains to be understood.
"However, I congratulate him for accepting that the North as it is today represents all that is wrong with Nigeria. The North-East is ravage by insurgency costing the country billions of dollars annually.
"The North-West is home to religious crisis, the North Central is ravaged by herdsmen of Northern extraction. Collectively the North is home to all negative indices of the quality of life.
"Infant mortality rate is highest in the North, illiteracy is highest in the North and the number of out-of-school children is the highest in the North.
"The poverty index in the North is high while the twin evil bedeviling the North is feudalism and religious fatalism. It will not be out of place to say the North has in fact been dragging Nigeria down since independence.
"All sort of mischievous phrases were coined by the very tiny political/military elite of the North to give undue advantage to the North.
"Let me assure Alhaji Coomassie that much as we want a fair and egalitarian Nigerian Society, it is not at all cost. The rest of Nigeria will survive, flourish and join the league of first world countries within two decades if the North exits. If it desire to leave Nigeria, join me in saying goodbye to the exiting North, I wish them a save journey into the desert."
He said.
