Amalgamation of Nigeria was no mistake, so stop fighting for it to be divided - Sultan Of Sokoto

Sa’ad Abubakar, the Sultan of Sokoto has made it known that the amalgamation of Nigeria was not a blunder because “God does not make mistakes”.

Speaking on Wednesday at a colloquium organised by Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC), he said: “When people talk about restructuring, if they mean we should disintegrate the country, I will not support it.

    But if it means making things and lives better and much conducive and convenient for Nigerians, then lets sit down and discuss about it. I know that many of these groups from the North, West, South-South and South East agitating for this or that have their positions. .
    But despite the realities at present, no group has the right to tell anybody you must leave this place or that place if we still live in this country called Nigeria. “And I support the President’s position 100%, I believe what he said is right. .
    And I say, instead of talking about devolution of power, let’s talk about devolution of economy. It is good to sit down and dialogue, but there must be respect. I must respect you and you must respect me. .
    And the greatest thing we can do for this country is to always reflect on our history. We didn’t fall from the sky, but came from somewhere. We became Nigeria in 1914 through amalgamation. .
    People are shouting that our coming together as a country in 1914 was a mistake, but God doesn’t make mistakes. If God doesn’t want such a thing as Nigeria to happen, nobody could ever have made it happen.
    So we claim to be very religious, but we challenge God, you don’t come out in the open and say you are challenging God, but by actions and utterances, many people are virtually challenging God. There is no wrong in you saying I want to be better than I am.”

    I have noticed a disturbing trend recently of fake news being attributed to me on social media. I don’t know who is behind it or what their motive might be, but let me assure you that any time I feel the need to comment publicly on any matter, I will not do so via some anonymous email or anything of the like; rather be rest assured that there will be no ambiguity whatsoever as to whether the comments came from me.” .
