President Muhammadu Buhari launches Unity Band
President Muhammadu Buhari has launched the “Unity Band”
which is aimed at keeping Nigerians united ahead of the 2019 general
elections.
The President launched the ‘Unity Band’ on Thursday at an event
organised by the Good Governance Ambassadors of Nigeria (GOGAN), in
Abuja.
He wants Nigerians to wear the wristband as a sign of resolve to stop the violence that occurred in previous elections.
The President said, “By the grace of God, we shall remain strong and
united, our country has passed through difficult times, on occasions
threatening the foundations of our unity, but with the help of God, we
have always emerged from each crisis stronger.
“There is no doubt that we still have pockets of issues that question
our unity, but we are convinced that, with the determination of all
Nigerians, we shall remain strong and united.
“The Buhari Unity Band is a visual and token symbol of our resolve to
live in unity as one and to preach the message of unity wherever we
live”.
The launch of the wristbands comes three days to the kick off of the
campaigns of the 2019 elections which the Independent National Electoral
Commission (INEC) fixed for November 18, 2018.
