Governor Alia cautioned against acts or utterances that undermine national unity, urging Nigerians instead to promote peace, hope, and mutual responsibility.
According to him, “Nigeria belongs to all of us. We must continue to pray for our country, believe in her potential, and contribute our quota to her growth. National development is a collective task that requires our unity, optimism, and hard work.”
