MIDDLE BELT: GROUP ADVOCATES RENAMING OF NORTH CENTRAL REGION The pressure group made the call on Thursday in a press statement signed by Yakubu Solomon Sule and issued to reporters. Sule noted that the people of the Middle Belt have been marginalised and cheated when it comes to the political benefits of the country, saying the northern elite have always abandoned the Middle Belt states during the sharing of political benefits, only using the region to add their numbers during elections. “We’re not a shopping mall where the north and the south would come and do their shopping every four years, where our illustrious sons and daughters were deprived of becoming the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria due to our inability to define our real identity,” the statement read. “Most importantly, I want all Middle Belters to know that we’re not second-class citizens.
