Sen. Ibrahim Gobir (PDP- Sokoto), on Sunday when speaking with newsmen says the National Assembly members will partner with other key stakeholders to ensure that Nigeria remains a united and indivisible entity, stressing that Nigeria will not break up in 2015, as being predicted by some people.
“Nigeria will rather come out stronger and more united in 2015 and beyond. Our diverse religious, ethnic and cultural differences should therefore be the basis of our unity.
“Similarly, the vast population of Nigeria should be used as strength and not a curse,’’ he said.
The Senator also called for concerted efforts by the government to ensure the exploration of the vast solid mineral resources in Nigeria, including oil in the North.
According to him, ``peace building and unity should be our major pre-occupation to ensure socio-political and economic development of the country''
