Acting President Yemi Osinbajo has advised Nigerian leaders, religious and political to work for the unity of Nigeria than allow themselves be torn apart by temptations.
Osinbajo reportedly made this known in a statement from his office.
According to the report, the Acting President also reaffirmed the commitment of the Federal Government to defending the rule of law and protecting the lives of Nigerians no matter their religious or ethnic background.
Osinbajo also warned that defaulters must be made to face the full wrath of the law despite the limitations of the criminal justice system in the country.
He also noted that with President Muhammadu Buhari’s instruction to security agencies, military and the police to send reinforcements to southern Kaduna to enforce peace, things will soon be all right.
Osinbajo then charged all Nigerians to work together to find a lasting solution to the crisis and resist the temptation to succumb to divisive tendencies
Recall that just some days ago, the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) sent a message to Osinbajo, calling on him to defend Christians as he is in office to do so.
In a statement by Special Assistant on media to the CAN president Rev Dr Samson Olasupo Ayokunle, Bayo Oladeji, the religious body said the issues of the DSS trying to arrest Apostle Johnson Suleman was a slap on the faces on Christians and wondered why Osinbajo who is also a Christian is keeping quiet about it.
