He said “Our generation can only be great when we see ourselves as one, not being the generation that counts its state before its nation, like IPOB,BIAFRA,AREWA,ODUDUWA,YORUBA,IBO,HAUSA,TIV,TAPA,NUPE, and others. we need to come together and develop as one whose main aim is just for the betterment of Nigeria and nothing else like Dubai that used 13years to build their country, Japan had no rubber to produce the steering of a car, nor silicon to produce side mirror, talk more of the front screen of a car, but look at how they’re doing today being one of the top exporters of automobile in the world even bragging that if everybody living in Japan are given a quit notice of 6 months before war attack, that they will move into the dessert and come back even better in six years time, As a Nigerian, can you say this of your country?”
