Ogun State Governor, Ibikunle Amosun, has held politicians solely responsible for the crises that have been dodging the country.
The governor, who spoke when members of the State House Press Corps, from the Presidency, in Abeokuta, Ogun State, said that the political class in the country have been in the habit of making careless and inflammable comments without considering the negative effects of such comments on the unity of the country.
Amosun called on the media to continue to deny such politicians the use of their platform to promote such divisive antics, but to concentrate on things that seek to unite the country.
Governor Amosun said that there is no nation in the world that had not gone through some challenges, even as he advised the political class to leave their bad ways
“When we speak, we should speak of things that promote unity and peace. This is not a sign of weakness but rather a sign of strength.
“We are better together as a nation. There is no where a part will be better than a whole if it is properly put together. Our diversity should strengthen.”
He expressed gratitude to the media for the support it has been giving the administration of President Muhammadu Buhari.
He called on journalists to praise his government where it has done well and constructively criticise it where it has done wrong. [myad]
