THE Governor of Sokoto State, Aminu Tambuwal has said Nigerians must live together peacefully as one.
He made the comment while expressing disgust at what he described as uncomplimentary comments on President Muhammadu Buhari in some quarters.
He reportedly called for caution and added that the ongoing speculative information on the President’s health would not help the government.
.The governor urged Nigerians to use their sense of humanity and pray for President Muhammadu Buhari “because it is in our collective self-interest to do so”.
He said, “Nigerians should refuse to be manipulated and influenced negatively through fake and speculative news, misinformation and disinformation, but exercise patience, cooperate with and support the government.
“Nigerians must co-exist peacefully and be our brothers keepers.
“This is critical because crisis prone areas affect investor’s confidence, while the consequence is stunted development.”
He said that there was the need to support the government so that the agenda of accelerated and sustained socioeconomic development would be entrenched.
“Also, our potential as an economic power house and a major player in continental and global sphere becomes manifest in the shortest possible time.”
