Tambuwal urges Nigerians to be law-abiding
Speaker of the House of Representatives, Alhaji Aminu Tambuwal, has urged Nigerians to be law-abiding at all times and restore the virtues of good neighbourliness.
Tambuwal said these in a statement issued in Abuja on Thursday by his Special Adviser on Media and Public Affairs, Mallam Imam Imam, on the occasion of the Eid-el-Kabir celebration.
Tambuwal said for Nigeria to make progress, the citizenry at all levels must be their brother’s keeper and be more sensitive to the well-being of one another, the News Agency of Nigeria reports.
According to him, all Nigerians must show commitment and readiness to make sacrifices toward the development of the nation.
He said that making sacrifice for the nation had become imperative now more than ever before, considering the numerous challenges confronting the nation.
The speaker added that while every nation on earth had peculiar challenges confronting its people, the determination to tackle those challenges at times sets some of them apart.
“We must face our problems with more commitment, determination, unity of purpose and the best of intentions,” he said.
He enjoined Muslim faithful to use the occasion to reflect on their spiritual lives.
“Let me use this opportunity to urge Nigerians, especially adherents of the Islamic faith, to use the occasion to reflect on our spiritual life as individuals and how we can contribute more meaningfully toward making Nigeria the great nation envisioned by its founding fathers.”

A former Inspector-General of Police, Alhaji Gambo Jimeta, on Wednesday accused members of the Northern Elders Forum of sowing seeds of discord in the country.
Specifically, he accused the elders of causing confusion in the polity in order to discredit the administration of President Goodluck Jonathan.
Responding to a comment credited to the NEF that the Jonathan administration was worse than that of former President Olusegun Obasanjo, the former police boss accused the northern elders of being hypocritical in their assessment.
Jimeta said instead of seeking real solutions to the nation’s problems, the elders “chose cowardly path to create confusion and mistrust.”
He said in a statement, “As for the unfortunate comment credited to the Northern Elders Forum that Jonathan’s government is worse than Obasanjo, it is disappointing to note that other Nigerians who should have been steering the course of nation building decided to pull those pillars down by sowing the seeds of enmity and political hypocrisy in order to distract Nigerians from the truth.
“Rather than rolling up their sleeves to actively find solutions to alleviate the suffering of Nigerians, they chose to pull us backward again and force us to play the blame game. The hydra-headed monster of collective responsibility in the nation’s down fall also has thousands of fingers pointing at those who sit in judgment in the Northern Elders’ Forum.”
Comparing the administrations of Jonathan and Obasanjo, he said, “How short is the memory of these Nigerians that they would choose to sweep away the cases of massive corruption that plagued the Obasanjo administration or the flagrant disregard of court judgments?
“What about the elections that brought the violent ethnic and religious crisis? The Jos and Kaduna crises all happened under his watch. Have they so easily forgotten the crisis in the aviation industry that saw a season of death through multiple air crashes?”
