Africa-Press<\/a> – Nigeria<\/a>. <\/strong><\/span>The presidency has restated that Nigeria will remain integrated despite the challenges confronting the nation and those inciting war for their alleged sectional agenda.<\/p>\n

The Special Adviser to the president on Media and Publicity, Femi Adesina, made the assertion in this week\u2019s edition of \u2018Fridays With Adesina\u2019 titled WAR AND RUMOURS OF WAR.\u201d<\/p>\n

In the article, Adesina alleged that some Nigerians rejoice at the country\u2019s security and economic predicament, stressing that their agitation is to see things fall apart in the \u2018zoo.\u2019<\/p>\n

Recall that the leader of the proscribed Indigenous People Of Biafra, IPOB had several times referred to Nigeria as a \u2018zoo\u2019 governed by \u2018animals\u2019.<\/p>\n

According to Buhari\u2019s aide, \u201cDo you know that some Nigerians actually gloat when things go wrong in the country? They rejoice at wanton killings, massive insecurity, prostrate economy, decrepit inter-ethnic relationships, and the like. They want things to fall apart in the \u2018zoo.\u2019 But Nigeria will survive.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe singer, Veno Marioghae, said it long ago. Nigeria is like the testicles of a ram. It may sway from side to side as the ram runs, but it will never fall off.<\/p>\n

Adesina urged those instigating war to consider the interest of the entire country and wish the country well instead of conceiving sectional agenda.<\/p>\n

The president\u2019s aide who cited a scripture from the Holy Bible (Numbers 14:28), said there is the possibility that spoken words can manifest into reality.<\/p>\n

He admonished those instigating war and spreading the rumours of war to have a rethink and talk on peace instead of destabilisation and disintegration of Nigeria, adding that Nigerians have no other country.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat we say often has a way of happening to us. \u201cAs you have spoken into my ears, so will I do to you.\u201d (Numbers 14:28) Enough about war, destabilization, disintegration\u201d.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
