PRESIDENT Goodluck Jonathan has said that Nigeria will remain a single entity, noting that his government would not succumb to the pressure of overseeing the disintegration of the country.
The president made this remark at the emir's palace in Hadejia, Jigawa State, when he paid the emir a courtesy visit on the first day of his two- day working visit to the state.
According to him, “those clamouring for the division of the country are myopic because it will not be.”
He further said that he was ready to use everything within his power to make Nigeria one country.
The president also vowed to transform the country through his government's reform programmes.
He stated that, “we are out to transform and develop Nigeria by all means based on the transformation agenda,” adding that, “we shall stabilise power, uplift the status of our road networks to global standard.”
He also commended the state governor, Alhaji Sule Lamido, for the security measures adopted to make the state peaceful.
Meanwhile, President Jonathan has stated that government would only succeed when there’s cordial relationship between the three arms of government.
He said this in Dutse while commissioning the multibillion naira state secretariat.
He, however, noted that when the legislature is easily manipulated by the executive, it would not only become irresponsible to the electorate, but would make government to lose focus and finish its term without adding value to people’s lives.
