AGAINST the daunting security challenges, the Vice President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, Prof. Yemi Osinbanjo, Thursday, said the unity of Nigeria is sacrosanct.
Vice President Yemi Osinbajo yesterday cautioned Nigerians, especially those agitating for the country’s break-up, to reconsider their actions.
He said during a courtesy visit to the Obi of Owa Kingdom, Dr. Emmanuel Efeizomor II, in Owa-Oyibu, Ika North-East Local Government Area of Delta State, that the diverse groups in the country were better as a united people and nation.
The courtesy call was part of his itinerary to the state to take part in the inauguration of the Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) Marshall Inspectorate Training School in Owa-Alero, in Ika North-East Local Government Area.
Osinbajo stated that Nigeria should remain a great nation because of its diversity, irrespective of its present challenges, adding that Nigerians should harness the inherent benefits in the nation’s diversity to promote sustainable socio-economic growth and development of the country.
