My honey citizens,
I am rattling grateful to God too to all Nigerians for their prayers. I am pleased to live dorsum on abode soil amidst my brothers too sisters.
2. In the course of teaching of my rest inwards the United Kingdom, I choose been kept inwards daily ship upon amongst events at home. Nigerians are robust too lively inwards discussing their affairs, exactly I was distressed to detect that roughly of the comments, particularly inwards the social media choose crossed our national cherry-red lines past times daring to enquiry our collective being equally a nation. This is a footstep besides far.
3. In 2003 afterwards I joined partisan politics, the slow Chief Emeka Ojukwu came too stayed equally my invitee inwards my hometown Daura. Over 2 days nosotros discussed inwards keen depth till slow into the nighttime too analyzed the problems of Nigeria. We both came to the determination that the position down must remain 1 too united.
4. Nigeria's unity is settled too non negotiable. We shall non allow irresponsible elements to maiden of all problem too when things larn bad they run away too saddle others amongst the responsibleness of bringing dorsum order, if necessary amongst their blood.
5. Every Nigerian has the correct to alive too pursue his concern anywhere inwards Nigeria without allow or hindrance.
6. I believe the rattling vast bulk of Nigerians part this view.
7. This is non to deny that at that spot are legitimate concerns. Every grouping has a grievance. But the beauty too attraction of a federation is that it allows dissimilar groups to air their grievances too operate out a manner of co-existence.
8. The National Assembly too the National Council of State are the legitimate too appropriate bodies for national discourse.
9. The national consensus is that, it is meliorate to alive together than to alive apart.
10. Furthermore, I am charging the Security Agencies non to allow the successes achieved inwards the final xviii months live a sign to relax.
11. Terrorists too criminals must live fought too destroyed relentlessly then that the bulk of us tin alive inwards peace too safety.
12. Therefore nosotros are going to reinforce too reinvigorate the struggle non solely against;
· elements of Boko Haram which are attempting a novel serial of attacks on soft targets
· kidnappings, farmers versus herdsmen clashes,
· inwards add-on to ethnic violence fuelled past times political mischief makers. We shall tackle them all.
13. Finally, honey Nigerians, our collective involvement instantly is to eschew short differences too come upwardly together to expression upwardly mutual challenges of;
· economical security,
· political development too integration
· equally good equally lasting peace amidst all Nigerians.
14. I remain resolutely committed to ensuring that these goals are achieved too maintained. I am then glad to live home.
15. Thank yous too may God bless our honey Nation.
