President Muhammadu
Buhari has reiterated his call on the Nigerian citizens to inculcate the spirit
of unity and peace to be able to move the country forward.
He said that peace and
unity were strong strings that could bind the citizenry of a diverse society
like Nigeria, especially in the wake of the current call for
restructuring.
This was contained in a
statement today by the Director of National Orientation Agencies, Osun State
Chapter, Dr. Martins Lawrence, to mark the National Ordinance Day in
celebration of the end of British colonial rule in the country in 1960 which
paved way for the Nigerian independence.
Lawrence said that
President Buhari had directed the NOA nationwide to use the celebration of
National Ordinance Day to re-emphasize the messages of national consciousness,
nationalism, patriotism and peaceful coexistence among Nigerians.
He also called on the
citizenry to demonstrate patriotism and loyalty to national symbols and respect
for value orientation as law abiding citizens that would not embark on any
mission capable of disintegrating the country.
