Democracy Day: Nigeria’s unity can’t be traded – Tinubu

President Bola Tinubu has emphasised that the unity of Nigeria can not be traded.

Tinubu, speaking at the  Presidential Democracy Day Dinner on Wednesday at the Banquet Hall in the State House, Abuja, pledged to bring Nigeria back to its glory of harvesting.

He described Nigeria’s diversity as unending and stated that it is the best path to success.

“Nigeria is a great country. We enshrined in our national anthem the essence of service. I have seen many governors, both live and on TV, serving their people. Thank you all. In this hall tonight, everybody has forgotten the partisanship colours and embraced that green-white-green, which depicts Nigeria and the values we hold dear to ourselves.

“That is the baton and the reason we say we will hand over a banner without stain to our children and grandchildren. Is it not true that Nigeria is greater than any one of us? That the unity of this country cannot be traded? Nigeria is blessed. Our complexity, yes. Our diversity, is unending, but it is the best road to success”, the President said.

On minimum wage, in a jovial mode, Tinubu said, “We are going to pay what Nigerians can afford. What you can afford, what I can afford, that is what we call cutting your coat according to your size. If you have a size at all.”
