Nigeria’ll remain indivisible – Emir Sanusi
Nigeria will remain one and indivisible country provided Nigerians will adore each other’s religion and culture, the Emir of Kano, Malam Muhammadu Sanusi II, has said.
Sanusi said this when the newly installed Garkuwan Hausawa in Ogun, Otunba Rotimi Paseda, visited him in his.
The emir said if Nigerians would respect each other, they would continue to remain one entity irrespective of their tribe, religion and cultural differences.
He said, “This is what we the traditional rulers are promoting among our subjects. So, we should ignore our difference and help in building one country.”
He, therefore, called on Hausa communities residing outside the North to respect the culture, tradition and norms of their hosts for peaceful coexistence.
“I was delighted when I learnt of your goodwill to Hausa people in Ogun State. I am not surprised of the good testimonies I hear about you taking cognizance of the fact that you are from a ruling house.
“Oba Awujale of Ijebu Land is my personal friend. We have enjoyed a longstanding relationship; and I feel happy for the role you are playing as the Garkuwan Hausawa to ensure cordial relationship between my people and the Yorubas.”
Otunba Rotimi Paseda said he was at the palace to pay homage to Emir Sanusi and receive his blessings as the newly crowned Garkuwan Hausawa.
Paseda, who is also the national leader of Unity Party of Nigeria (UPN), said he had enjoyed fruitful relationship with the Hausa people living in Ogun State.
“They are my brothers. I ensure that they are happy and I can testify to you that they have remained good ambassadors of the Hausa race in the state. They live in peace with us and I will ensure that the status quo is maintained,” he said.
