Vice President, Yemi Osinbajo has
warned Biafra agitators and others calling for Nigeria’s separation to stop
forthwith.
Osinbajo said this in Uyo on
Saturday at a grand ceremony organised by the Akwa Ibom government to mark the
30th anniversary of the creation of the state.
He urged the people to resist
attempts by any group trying to push them to destroy the existing peace in the
country.
“Peace is the foundation of
enduring prosperity and for peace to reign everywhere in Nigeria, all of us as
Nigerians must make necessary sacrifices.
“We are in a situation where we
must take seriously the admonition to love one another.
“Whatever complaints we may have
must not be an excuse to subvert the social order.
“The Buhari government is
prepared to engage and listen patiently to all sections of the country.
“Citizens everywhere should not
sit idle when misguided elements choose to recklessly destroy the common bond
of brotherhood and friendship that has put us together for decades,” he said.
He assured that the Federal
Government would support Akwa Ibom to develop the Ibaka seaport.
“Provisions have been made in the
current budget of Nigerian Port Authority (NPA) for the development of the
Ibaka Deep Seaport,” Osinbajo disclosed.

ReplyDeleteOsinbajo, you too have jumped on the bandwagon. From the heart of your heart do want to say that there's no marginalization in Nigeria? As a true Christian be honest with yourself and call a spade its own name.

ReplyDelete@Osibanjo,I have to say to you that peace is not the foundation of ensuring prosperity. It's equal right and justice. Peace will naturally be in place when there is equal right and justice. Then prosperity will come. We should be talking of equal right and justice not just peace alone. When the former are in place, the latter happens naturally. By David
