Mrs Adefolalu also urged them to maintain the peaceful coexistence by having respect for the sovereignty and territorial integrity of the country.
Mrs Adefolalu in a statement charged residents to shun constant hostility and embrace peace all the time, she said the June 12 democracy day is symbolic to the nation’s democratic struggle which she described as a milestone and watershed in the democratic history of our dear Nation.
” Thou we have our peculiarities in terms of security challenges, demand for better deals and wake up call for good governance but any form of agitation that will threaten the unity and sovereignty of Nigeria must be totally avoided, We cant afford to tread the path of disunity as it will dash the hope we all long for and disrupt the legacy of our founding fathers”.
The NOA boss while congratulating Nigerians on the occasion of this year’s democracy day celebration urged the people to support the present administration in delivering dividend of democracy to the citizens of Nigeria and make it one united and indivisible entity.
