The
Senate President, Dr Abubakar Bukola Saraki, has appealed to Nigerians to
continue to have confidence in the President Muhammadu Buhari-led government.
Saraki
also urged the people to imbibe the culture of peaceful co-existence with one
another, expressing the hope that the country would overcome its myriad of
challenges with time.
The
Senate president stated this at the weekend in Ilorin, Kwara State, while
speaking with journalists shortly after he was turbaned as the ‘Baba Adini of
Ansarul Islam Society of Nigeria.’
According
to him, “My message is for us to live in peace and unity. I know that we will
continue to make sacrifices; and we should be hopeful that the country will get
better. We should be hopeful that we will attain our promises with time. We
just have to stay focused and determined and should not get distracted. I’m
sure at the end of the day we will get there.
“But
the most important thing is that there must be unity and peace and we must be
able to come together and support government to be able to do our best. People
should not give up; they should be rest assured that all is going to be well,”
he said.
Saraki
also defended the need for budgetary provisions for lawmakers to execute
constituency projects across the country, saying such provisions would allow
lawmakers to impact on the lives of their constituents.
