The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, on Friday in
Abuja applauded the decision of Scotland to
remain under the United Kingdom and urged
Nigerians to remain united.
Olisa Metuh, the party’s National Publicity
Secretary, in a statement, said the decision
showed that citizens could indeed push through
their resolve to live together peacefully.
He added that the decision further proved that
citizens could leave together as one people with
a common destiny in spite of perceived or real
differences.
Mr. Metuh stressed the resolve of Nigerians to
live in a united and peaceful nation “just like the
people of Scotland had chosen to preserve their
over 300 years union by voting to stay in
Britain”.
This, he said, was irrespective of their
challenges of ethnic diversity.
“We might be different in our tongues, tribes
and religious affiliations but, as one people, let
us not dwell on these differences.
“But rather magnify those things that bind us
together so that we continue to live together in
peace, love and unity,’’ Mr. Metuh said.
According to him, the challenges facing the
nation, are transitory and incapable of defeating
the collective spirit of the people.
He, therefore, urged Nigerians to ensure that
their thoughts and actions were always guided
by national interest and values that would unite
and bind all citizens in love.
The PDP spokesman added that it was
incontrovertible that Nigeria remained stronger
and more prosperous as one nation.
The statement called on citizens to put the unity
of the nation above every other personal and
sectional interest in their dealings and
aspirations.
It charged all PDP elected and appointed
officials at all levels of government nationwide
to redouble their efforts in the prudent handling
of resources as encapsulated in the party`s
manifesto.
This, it said, was critical to ensure that the
people would not only continue to enjoy the
benefits of having the PDP in power but vote
enmasse for it in the 2015 general elections.
Majority of voters in Scotland voted to stay in
the United Kingdom on Thursday.
Over 2 million people, or 55.3 per cent of
registered voters, said “No” to independence,
with over 1.6 million, or 44.7 per cent, in the
“Yes” camp.
Scotland had been under the United Kingdom
for over 300 years (NAN).
