‘Secession Talks, Quit Notices Are All Parts Of Nigeria’s Journey To Greatness’ – Osinbajo

Vice President Yemi Osinbajo has said Nigeria will fulfill its destiny to be a great nation despite renewed separatist agitations.
He said noises over secession, quit notice are parts of the journey to be a great nation.
He asked Nigerians, especially the elite, to be prepared to make sacrifice to lift the nation higher.
Osinbajo expressed the confidence in his speech at the 2017 Eidl Al-Adha lunch at the State House in Abuja yesterday.
The Vice President stood in for President Muhammadu Buhari at the get-together.
He said: “ The significance of this celebration is the willingness of Prophet Ibrahim (Prophet Abraham as we know in the Old Testament) to make the great sacrifice of his son in fulfillment of his pledge toGod.
“It is the willingness to make a great sacrifice in order to be able to fulfill his own destiny and the destiny of his nation.

“Our nation’s elites must recognize that we all must make sacrifice to attain the destiny God has ordained for us.
“I am one of those confident that our nation will attain its destiny.”
