The lawmaker representing Borno Central Federal Constituency at the House of Representatives, Hon. Abdulkadir Rahis, has expressed optimism that the country will overcome current challenges and faulted calls for the breakup of the country, saying it would do more harm than good.
Rahis, in a statement on Friday, said “mischief makers were seizing the chance of the collective tolerant attitude of Nigerians to bring divisive antics into the country.’
He described as enemies of the country, “including those fanning embers of disunity and beating the drums of war, to beware and retrace their steps, because Nigerians are naturally peace loving, hospitable and accommodating people.
“We have become so interactive, so connected together with freedom of movement and association, as enshrined in our constitution, to the extent that attempt at dividing the country would do us all more harm than good. It is now that we need each other to forge ahead more than ever before.”
He commended Northern State Governors who paid solidarity visits to the Borno State Governor, Kashim Shetima, in respect of the devastations the state suffered from the attacks of Boko Haram terrorists.
