Alhaji Muktari Mapia, a Chieftain of the All
Progressives Congress (APC) in Sokoto State, on

sentiments and work towards building a stronger
and vibrant nation.
Mapia gave
the message in an interview with the News
Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Sokoto.
He said, "Nigerians, irrespective of religious and
political differences, must unite towards
achieving the set objectives for the nation's
growth.
"We must be happy and count ourselves lucky
that our nation is blessed with abundant mineral
and human resources capable of taking the
nation to greater heights.
"I want to appeal to all Nigerians, irrespective of
our cultural and tribal sentiments, to collectively
work towards ensuring sustainable peace and
unity.
"All we need are sound economic policies that
would pave the way forward for Nigeria", he
said.
He called on the Federal Government to come
out with realistic ideas that would revamp the
nation's ailing companies.
The APC leader said that with adequate power
supply, foreigners would come and invest in the
country. (NAN)
