In a statement issued Monday in Abuja, Hon Dambazau said that “ today, we remember and hail our forebearers who fought for the independence and unity of our great country.
“We also remember members of our Armed Forces, many of whom have paid the ultimate sacrifice to defend Nigeria’s territorial integrity and keep our country united”.
“As a country, we must emphasize what unites us rather than what divides us especially those that come under the guise of religion, politics, tribe and sundry groupings.
“ More importantly, I admonish Nigerians to engage only in acts that would heal to ensure tolerance and peaceful coexistence as this is the only pathway to our nation’s growth and development.
“President Buhari administration is committed to building on and affirming our status as Africa’s leading light”
