In an Eid- el – Fitr issued by his Media Assistant, Paul Mumeh, Mark said, “Because the trend today is that nations are coming together and bridging gaps of differences for mutual cooperation under a new world order of globalization for a better society. Nigeria is part of the global community.

“I urge all Muslim faithful to imbibe the lessons of the Holy month of Ramadan and continue to pray for peace, unity and stability of Nigeria.

“Those stirring up the embers of disunity, anarchy and confusion should desist from doing so and concentrate their efforts toward building a more stable, prosperous and united Nigeria stressing that we have more to gain staying together than falling apart.

“The consequences of another civil war for the country will be devastating and catastrophic not only for Nigeria but for the entire African Continent.”

“To all our religious, traditional and political leaders across the country to restrain their followers and youths from making inflammatory statements capable of plunging the country into chaos.

“We should focus more on the positives that makes us great as a people without degenerating to the level of low minds who cling to primordial and emotional fault lines in order to survive.

“Nigeria has had her fair share of ethno-religious conflicts as well as the ill-fated 30 months old fratricidal civil war in which the nation lost over three million of her productive citizens not to mention the countless number of properties destroyed.”

“What we require as a people is an egalitarian society where Justice, equity and rule of law prevails. A nation where everyone is free to pursue his or her legitimate ambition in any part of the country without fear of molestation or intimidation”.
