By Abubakar Rabilu, Gombe
The United Voice of Arewa has called for greater unity, peace and collective responsibility among Nigerians as a means of promoting national development and progress.
The organisation made the call during a courtesy visit to the retired Chief Judge of Gombe State, Justice Mu’azu AbdulKadir Pindiga, at his residence in Manawaci, Gombe.
Receiving the delegation, Justice Pindiga commended the group for its vision and objectives, describing its activities as a positive initiative capable of contributing to peace, unity and national development.
The retired Chief Judge urged members of the organisation to remain united and work collectively towards advancing the interests of the country.
He said unity, cooperation and collective leadership played significant roles in the achievements recorded by prominent Northern leaders, particularly the Sardauna of Sokoto, Sir Ahmadu Bello, and Nigeria’s former Prime Minister, Sir Abubakar Tafawa Balewa.
According to him, the two leaders demonstrated commitment, cooperation and a strong sense of responsibility, which contributed significantly to the development of Northern Nigeria and the country at large.
Justice Pindiga also charged Nigerian youths to uphold honesty, integrity and trustworthiness in their personal and professional dealings.
He said adherence to such values would earn them respect and honour while enabling them to make meaningful contributions to society.
Earlier, the State Coordinator of the United Voice of Arewa, Comrade Umar Muhammad Abdulmuminu, Wamban Nasarawo, thanked Justice Pindiga for receiving the delegation.
He reaffirmed the organisation’s commitment to strengthening its activities and promoting peace, unity and national development.
The organisation’s Secretary, Dr Mansur Abdullah Ibrahim, and Women Coordinator, Mallama Maryam Rilwanu, also joined in prayers for lasting peace, unity and prosperity in Nigeria.
