President Muhammadu Buhari has launched the “Unity Band” which is aimed at keeping Nigerians united ahead of the 2019 general elections.

The President made the launching on Thursday at an event organised by the Good Governance Ambassadors of Nigeria (GOGAN), in Abuja.

He wants Nigerians to wear the wristband as a sign of resolve to stop the violence that occurred in previous elections.

He said, “By the grace of God, we shall remain strong and united, our country has passed through difficult times, on occasions threatening the foundations of our unity, but with the help of God, we have always emerged from each crisis stronger.

“There is no doubt that we still have pockets of issues that question our unity, but we are convinced that, with the determination of all Nigerians, we shall remain strong and united.

“The Buhari Unity Band is a visual and token symbol of our resolve to live in unity as one and to preach the message of unity wherever we live”.

The launch of the wristbands comes three days to the kick off of the campaigns of the 2019 elections which the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) fixed for November 18, 2018

May Allah bless pmb. ..he is doing wonderful well

A bigot, clannish and nepotic goverent playing the unity band/card only when election is here.Meanwhile the government is only of the core north, by the north and for the north.Thou shall only continue to fool yourself and your band of herded zombies.

Display of irony
What has nepotism and bigotry got to do with unity.

United Nigeria will surely remain in spite of all odds we will never be broken.

The dullard and confusion are inseparable. How can the most divisive President in Nigeria's history be posing with a "Unity" band? No wonder some consider him dead, yet he's still acting Alive in the form of Jubrin.

Jubrin onye sudan

Too late for him to preach unity. He has already done too much damage.

Well done sir . Sai Baba

Nigeria unity is much more than wasting money to create hand band.... You have to create policies that will unite the nation, not this rubbish.


Who hand band help?

I wonder o, after destroying the existing fragile unity with his divisive comments and actions. Just another avenue to loot our Commonwealth.

He should give it to all his security chiefs to put on.

What an ethnic bigot ! Nonsense !!

Hope it is not a wrist band to identify who to attack or not after the election.

Just thinking out loud. I don't trust our politicians

We all saw the magic of an handkerchief in Osun's election

Like the fellow above said, hope its not an election discrimination band?...

"He who posseses the band shall vote and he who does not shall be prevented from getting to the venue"
