In his phrases

 

“Nigeria is for all of us. Its unity just isn’t negotiable. And its final success can solely be achieved if all of us come along with a typical aim of getting peace and prosperity for our nation.

We will proceed to work on dialogue-based options to deal with authentic grievances. However we stay able to take decisive actions towards secessionist agitators and their sponsors who threaten our nationwide safety.

The current arrests of Nnamdi Kanu and Sunday Adeyemo, and the continuing investigations being carried out have revealed sure high-profile financiers behind these people.  We’re vigorously pursuing these financiers together with one recognized as a serving member of the Nationwide Meeting.

This can be a clear instance of how folks abandon their nationwide management positions for his or her egocentric good points. As an alternative of preaching unity, they’re funding and deceptive our youths to conduct prison acts that typically result in unfortunate and pointless lack of lives and property.

Because the so-called leaders run overseas to cover, our harmless youths are misled and left within the streets to combat for his or her mindless and harmful causes.”
