The Senate Thursday called on Nigerians to give all necessary support to federal government in its bid to fix the myriad of problems facing the nation.

This was coming just as the Permanent Secretary in the Foreign Affairs Ministry, Ambassador Mustapha Suleiman, disclosed that a total of 821 Nigerians are to be evacuated home from South Africa due to the recent xenophobic attacks in the country.

The Chairman of the Senate Committee on Foreign Affairs, Senator Ahmed Bulkachua, at a meeting of the committee with Foreign Affairs Ministry top officials, made a strong call on Nigerians to rally round the government in getting Nigeria fixed for the good of all through required patriotism.

Apparently worried by the fate of the returning Nigerians vis-a-vis the prevailing challenges at home, Bulkachua said the situation on ground is fixable as it was with Ghana in the 1980s.

According to him, “If Ghana whose economy was in shambles in the 80s with over hundred of Cedis exchanging for $1 can positively turn her situation around to what it is today with 4.2 Cedis exchanging for a dollar, Nigeria can also do same if both the government and the governed can put their acts together in that respect.”

He was, however, quick to add that as it is with other nations of the world, there would be no situation where all Nigerians will remain in Nigeria.



“Not even developed or great countries of the world like the United States of America (USA), the Republic of China etc, have all their citizens domiciled at home. But what must be addressed by us is to put things in proper shape so that those, who will be travelling out, will largely be for excursion or tourism reason and not greener pasture, as it is now.”

Speaking earlier on what the Nigerian government would be tabling before its South African counterpart during the forthcoming state visit of President Muhammadu Buhari to South Africa, Sulaiman said a wide range of issues would be tabled at the bi-national commission.

He explained that during the visit, Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) and agreements between the two countries would be signed on means of preventing and mitigating such attacks in the future.

“Besides that, composite wise, during the visit, required mechanisms will be put in place for the Nigerian High Commission there to have a variety of information on Nigerians resident in South Africa,” he added.

Suleiman revealed that over 800 Nigerians affected by the recent xenophobic attacks in South Africa are to return to Nigeria. “As at Wednesday (September 18), about 821 Nigerians affected by the recent xenophobic attacks have either been evacuated home or indicated interest for that purpose,” he said.

Bulkachua is talking. Suleiman
is talking. They both want to fix Nigeria. How? We pleaded with Government to decentralize the Exclusive List and grant full autonomy of Police, Resources and Elections Control to our 36 Constitutional States, none of them seems to be listening. They allow Fulanis from Niger and Chad Republics into The South and recklessly arm them with NIN and other particulars to make them automatic citizens.
Father forgive them for they do not know what they are doing.

According to him, “If Ghana whose economy was in shambles in the 80s with over hundred of Cedis exchanging for $1 can positively turn her situation around to what it is today with 4.2 Cedis exchanging for a dollar, Nigeria can also do same if both the government and the governed can put their acts together in that respect.”

These are true words.
Anything for our darling nation to move forward is what we are after.
God bless Nigeria.

Trash!

Another round of wailing beckons for children of hate and perdition.

seek support to fix UNA father , foolish government .

Fix Nigeria when you're not ready to give up on your exotic and expensive lifestyles? Fix your selfishness and greed first, and we would have fixed half of Nigeria's problems

Like, cut down on your overhead and use it for scholarships

Pride before Destruction.

They will only use words of mouth to fix Nigeria and not action. Allah dai ya taimake Nigeria.

Chao

You're at the helm of affairs if you want to fix the country ,why are you pleading with the citizens whom you guys have rendered voiceless and powerless ?

You all need to start doing things right because common Nigerians are not the problems facing the nation rather the various leaders we have running things.

You all just talk with no actions since inception..

Stupid Senate, and the one talking.

Begging us to support you to do your job that you collect salary.

Has there been a time the people stopped you from doing your job? Nonsense

I'm interested in how you came to the conclusion that the gentleman (orisa37) typed trash....

Provide well thought-out argumants please, so you cam win our support.

Otherwise, we stick to his presentation.

Thanks.

Lol...the idea that 200 hundred million random negroes with nothing in common other than skin color will be able to successfuly run a country is a british joke.

I'm sure this was how they were laughing after granting us independence.

Nigeria can only work 2 ways
1. Through a break up
2. Through a process of assimilation where one ethnic group assimiliate others

More like the ticks and lice crying out in concern for the declining health of the dog.

Nigeria will be great again in our lifetime

Action speaks louder than words. United Nigeria premised on religion and tribe are very fundamental to making Nigeria great again. Let government fix these fundamental issues with action, then we'll believe they mean business.
