University of Lagos Muslim Alumni (UMA) has urged Nigerians to shun the idea of prioritizing ethnicity, tribalism and religion over competency, which is a threat to national development.
Speaking during the 26th Pre-Ramadan lecture of the alumni themed: ‘Though Tribe and Tongue May Differ: Interrogating Nigeria’s Nationhood’, the former member of the House of Representatives, Dr. Usman Bugaje, stated that competency in governance remains the driving force that can take Nigeria to a greater height.
Bugaje urged the ruling class and elite to focus on the next generation, adding that national consensus is very key as a panacea to the issues arising from conflict.
