There will be nothing like Christian or Muslim, God has a reason for bringing us together. We must be united as one. The days are gone when people will use religion and ethnicity to divide Nigeria. We are all one, all what we need is somebody that will carry Nigeria to the next level and that is what Goodluck Jonathan represents,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe contractor of this road RCC has been mobilized and I can tell you that the remaining sections, all of them will be awarded and completed within the three years. Goodluck Jonathan\u2019s government is a government that when we say things we do it. That is the new Nigeria we are building and we have started building it\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n<p>On his part, Dr Ogienwonyi urged the people of the area, to give all the required support to the contractor handling the project so that they will be able to complete the job as scheduled, adding that \u201c I will be disappointed as a son of the soil if you start making unnecessary demands which will slow the job. President Jonathan means well for Nigerians and we must all encourage and support him\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Comments are moderated.
