#NEWS 2015: Nigeria’ll Not Break-Up - Jonathan President Goodluck Jonathan on Monday said contrary to the predictions of those he described as doom’s day prophets, the 2015 general elections would not disintegrate Nigeria. Rather, he said the elections would come and go while the country would stand stronger. Jonathan gave the assurance while declaring open a conference organised by the Interfaith Initiative For Peace in Abuja. The conference with the theme “The imperative of interfaith understanding and cooperation for responsible politics” was co-initiated by the Sultan of Sokoto, Alhaji Saad Abubakar III; and the Catholic Archbishop of Abuja, Cardinal John Onaiyekan. The President said he was aware of some prophesies indicating that Nigeria would catch fire as a result of the aftermath of the forthcoming general elections. He however said the predictions would not come to pass because his administration would continue to conduct transparent, free and fair election which he promised Nigerians. Jonathan said citizens would not have any reason to be angry and go violent once they are convinced that the electoral process is credible. He said, “Despite the fact that we have survived the civil war and continue to evolve as one nation with one destiny, we have among ourselves those who continue to define us and put it that we as Nigerians cannot live together. “As the 2015 elections draw near, the doom’s day sayers are out and predicting how Nigeria is going to catch fire next year. In the opinion of some so-called experts, our ethnic and religious differences is bound to boil over. They portray us doomed to fail. “But I can say categorically that Nigeria will not disintegrate, we will not fail. We will surely get over our challenges and become even a stronger nation. “If you spend a lot of time on the Internet, the social media, you will be attempted to think along the same line. In a country of over 170 million people, the opinion of very few is now being elevated above that of over 100 million Nigerians. -------------------------------------------- @ Saving Grace Reporters We exist to deliver: √ Accurate, up-to-date, dependable news √ Rib Cracking Jokes √ Prayers √ Stories √ Riddles & Lots more.
