Responding to comments from members of the Muhammadu Buhari/Osinbajo Dynamic Support Group, Vice President Yemi Osinbajo promised in Abuja on Thursday that “a lot of the security challenges we experience in Nigeria today will be resolved in due course”.
“This country will be stronger and greater,” VP Osinbajo said.
“We must never relent in ensuring that we keep to the ideals of the country and we don’t lose sight of what we are trying to achieve here.”
The VP also used the opportunity to praise President Muhammadu Buhari, “The president has always remained steadfast and focused in resolving the problems of the country beginning with security”.
Osinbajo also called for the unity of Nigerians, regardless of their religious affiliations and ethnic backgrounds.
“The unity of this country is important for all of the different ethnicities, religions, everybody. Whatever the group or ideology, unity is important for every one of us,” he continued.
“It is wrong for a country that is the largest economy in Africa and definitely going to be one of the largest economies in the world, to start thinking in terms of fragmenting itself.
“If you fragment, the problems are going to multiply, poverty will multiply.”
