Part of the statement read: “We will continue to advocate for one united Nigeria. Restructuring or devolution of power is not the solution.

“Let’s take a cue from the presidential speech of President Muhammadu Buhari and collectively rededicate ourselves to making Nigeria great for ourselves and generations unborn, though disagreements will occur along the way, we must remain focused on the larger picture by adopting peaceful, civilized and democratic channels for the resolutions of our disputes and disagreements,” the statement said.
