We’ll Annihilate Those Against Unity of Nigeria – President Buhari Speaks on “Christmas Day”

As Christians all over the world celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ on Christmas Day, President Muhammadu Buhari said the country will annihilate those working against its unity.

President Muhammadu Buhari has called on Nigerians to pray for the soldiers in the theatre of battle against the enemy, as Christians all over the world celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ on Christmas Day.

In his Christmas message, the President said the country will annihilate those working against the unity of the country, adding that the personal fortitude of the gallant soldiers fighting insurgency will continue to inspire the country to victory.

The President urged Nigerians to use the occasion to remember and provide refuge to those who cannot enjoy Christmas at home with their families especially those driven away from their homes by insurgency or violence, particularly the Internally Displaced Persons.

The message which he personally signed read, “I felicitate with all Nigerians, particularly our Christian brothers and sisters, on the occasion of this year’s Christmas day celebration.

“The commemoration of the birth of Jesus Christ is an important opportunity for us to show love to one another and encourage unity by spending quality time with our friends, families and the less-privileged.

‘It is also an occasion to draw inspiration from the exemplary lifestyle and teachings of Jesus Christ, who constantly stood for what is right, true and honest.

“The Holy Book describes Christmas as a festival of peace, joy, healing, hope and fulfilment. It kindles great expectations in the heart, irrespective of the challenges of the moment.

“As we celebrate this Yuletide season, let us devote some time to pray and appreciate the sacrifices of members of our armed services to keep our nation safe and secure.

“By the same token, and keeping with the spirit of the season, our gallant troops serving in the frontlines in the fight against insurgency; those wounded, lying in the hospital, as well as civilians who have suffered the brunt of evil and wicked elements these past years, deserve our fervent goodwill and sustained prayers.

“The personal fortitude of these individuals will continue to inspire us to victory as we turn the tide against the enemy and annihilate those who work against the unity of our nation.

“In this season of hope, let us remember to provide refuge to those who cannot enjoy Christmas at home with their families, or have been driven from their homes by insurgency or violence, particularly the Internally Displaced Persons.

“Lately, we have witnessed an upsurge in the activities of trans-border syndicates who lure our youths to modern slavery through irregular migration. While we have stepped up our efforts to halt this wickedness against the upwardly mobile generation, and have evacuated some of our compatriots stranded abroad, we appeal to them to shun the allure of embarking on such perilous journeys.

“I am deeply convinced that better days lie ahead for us as a nation as we make progress on all the major fronts where we have set our energies to surmount the challenges.”
