The committee’s membership includes individuals from various backgrounds and regions, bringing a diverse range of perspectives and experiences to the table.
The committee’s chairman, Comrade Joseph Enan Maigari, emphasized the importance of the committee’s mission, stating that Nigeria is a wounded nation due to the failure of past and present leadership.
He noted that the committee’s task is delicate and will have far-reaching consequences for the nation in the coming years.
Maigari also emphasized the need for forgiveness and healing, stating that the committee’s work is not just for the team alone, but for all Nigerians.
He appealed to Nigerians from all walks of life to support the committee’s mission, emphasizing that the country’s freedom and justice depend on it.
Maigari said, “We are a wounded people because of the failure of the past and present leadership, no matter on which side we stood. We all stand in need of healing. We on the team are no superhuman exceptions. We too need forgiving and to forgive ourselves in order to be able to wrestle the oppressors holding this country captive since 1960.
“Everyone is aware that we have been assigned a delicate task whose execution, success or otherwise, will have critical and far-reaching consequences for our land and nation in the coming years.
“We will be engaging in what should be a corporate nationwide process of healing through contrition and forgiveness. To be able to forgive one needs to know whom one is forgiving and why. That is why the truth is so central to this whole exercise.
