Catholic Bishop of Sokoto Diocese, Bishop Mathew Hassan Kukah, Wednesday said the region where the President comes from would not make any difference, adding that Gen. Muhammad Buhari’s presidency would not invent a new bureaucracy or bring an end to the Almajiri syndrome in the North in one term.
He also said he had not seen any reason why Nigeria would break up in 2015, stressing that the country would remain intact despite the fears being nursed by many Nigerians.
Speaking with journalists ahead of the 50th anniversary of the Sokoto Diocese scheduled to hold on December 19 in Sokoto, Kukah maintained that the 2015 elections would come and go like others and that Nigeria would emerge stronger contrary to apprehensions in some quarters.
The cleric emphasised that God had not spoken to anybody about the future of Nigeria and that the desired change could only be attained if Nigerians decide to change their attitude.
“God has not spoken to anybody about the future of Nigeria. Today is the tomorrow you dreamt about and if we want 2015 election to be successful it will start from today. So, I see no reason why Nigeria will just break up,” he said.
