According to the All Progressives Congress (APC) chieftain, other regions in Nigeria will suffer if the north breaks away from the country.
Garba listed the reasons for his position, saying the north is the single largest supplier of raw materials in all Nigerian industries, from food through agriculture and cloths to shelter through cements and other building materials available in the northern rocks, including iron ores and ceramics.
Further, he said that the north have gold, diamond, tin, copper, gypsum, coal, magnesium, and even uranium.
Garba also said that more students from the north studied in the Benin universities than the indigenes of Benin and more northern traders travel to Cotonou than any other Nigerians, hence a trade pact will be easy for the north.
He also mentioned other attributes that the north has that can see it thriving.
