A former Lagos State governor and ruling All Progressives Congress, APC  stalwart Bola Tinubu has reinforced the need for Nigeria to remain an indivisible, unity country.

The former governor who is also the National Leader if APC, and has been rumoured to have presidential ambition, said Nigeria will scale through its current challenges.

He said aggrieved Nigerians should come together and talk on how to move the nation forward, rather than call for the outright break up of the country. He eruled out the separation of the country.

Tinubu disclosed this at the democracy lecture organised by the Nigerian Youth Congress organised in Abuja, the nation’s capital, with the theme “Nigerian Democratic System and Good Governance: The Journey So Far.”

According to him “Nigeria seats at a crucial junction. Do we advance by doing what is right or do we stagnate by settling for what is easy?

“Our nation’s journey is one of continuous struggles. We have struggled many times, yet never shall we fall. We are Nigerians and shall remain so.

“Of course, much work needs to be done. But it is time to recognise the points at which we fight ourselves. It is one that demands further reforms and evolution.

“We need to continue to transform and improve so that we perfect good and effective governance in Nigeria for all citizens,” Tinubu said.

Represented by James Faleke, a member of the House of Representatives, Tinubu urged Nigerian youths to work together to solve the nation’s problems.

He said the youths must find a way to work with the nation’s political leaders on how to chart a positive way forward at this auspicious time.

Tinubu said “Our youths are the engine by which our future and protection will be powered. Our journey till date will be further defined by your efforts and actions. This journey should not and cannot be a destructive process.

“We must manage the necessary change in a peaceful and democratic manner and ensure the continued unity of our nation, its people, and collective potentials.

“To perfect good and effective government is not going to come solely from the Nigerian elites. It will virtually come from the youths.

“This is not a time for you to falter. It’s a time for you to stand up and help push this great nation forward. It is time for Nigeria to evolve,” he said.
