Okowa praises Buhari for keeping Nigeria united

Governor Ifeanyi Okowa of Delta state, yesterday, commended President Muhammadu Buhari for sustaining the country’s fragile peace, saying all Nigerians should stand up to applaud the gesture in the midst of excruciating challenges.
“It is a thing of joy that our President, Muhammadu Buhari, is doing a lot to keep the country as one indivisible and progressive nation that can take its pride of place among comity of nations,” Okowa said.
Speaking at a well-attended 57th Independence Day celebration in Asaba, Delta state, Okowa tasked Nigerians, especially the elites, to rededicate themselves to the progress and growth of the country.
“The pride of belonging to an independent country imposes a huge responsibility on us, and we, particularly the elites, have extra responsibility to dedicate our services and lives to the progress of the nation.
“Today, we are gathered to celebrate this great national event, the 57th independence anniversary of our dear country. It was a product of sustained struggle by the founding fathers of this great country and it is a thing of joy that our President, Muhammadu Buhari is doing a lot to keep the country as one indivisible and progressive nation that can take its pride of place among comity of nations,” he enthused.
