President Muhammadu Buhari has stated that Nigeria is determined to stay as a country despite threats to her unity.
Buhari said the sacrifices of the nation’s heroes, heroines and veterans who stood up to confront the security challenges the country has faced cannot be forgotten.
“Our nation has recently celebrated 55 years of political independence and continues to remain as one indivisible entity despite several grievous challenges. Since independence, Nigeria has witnessed a lot of internal strife, survived a civil war and has remained united. This feat achieved by the country is an eloquent testimony to the determination of our citizens to remain as one people.”
The President spoke while launching the 2016 Armed Forces Remembrance Day Emblem and Appeal Fund in Abuja.
