Speaker of the House of Representatives, Abbas Tajudeen, and Bishop Mathew Kukah, founder of the Kukah Centre, have urged Nigerians to work towards building a united nation.
He said that embracing and leveraging its pluralism would propel Nigeria towards a more unified and prosperous future where the collective strengths of its diverse population would be fully harnessed. “I challenge us all, as a people, to reject bigotry of any kind and embrace tolerance, empathy, and unity,” he said.
“Holding government accountable, promoting economic empowerment, inclusive governance, and education are important tools in fostering national unity,” he said. “National integration doesn’t necessarily mean everybody must be the same. It is for us in Nigeria to understand the intricacies of managing diversity.“This country is increasingly in recession. So, the urgency of national cohesion is a call that we must make and continue to make,” he said.
