“Crisis lies ahead of us, if we do not halt hate speeches and conducts now,” the NOA director added.
According to him, most of the uprisings, tribal wars, religious crisis and ethnic clashes the country experienced in the past were due to intolerance, hate pronouncements and hate conducts by leaders and citizens.
Adeyemi, therefore, urged all Nigerians to be mindful of the people they listened to and the statements they make on social media.
He emphasized that the strength of Nigeria as a nation lies in its unity and assured that the Federal Government remain commitment to defending Nigeria’s sovereignty.
