Will Nigeria be united after 2023?

Issue #12 • View online

Dear MyNigeria reader,

This past week was the same as the last. The usual abduction in the North continued with the kidnap of some 39 students of Federal College of Forestry Mechanisation, Afaka, Kaduna State, and eight members of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG).

The loud silence from the presidency has given cause for secession from major and minority ethnic groups.

Will Nigeria be united after 2023?

As you step out today, take a moment and say a prayer for the country.

Our best wishes for a positive week ahead. Please send any comments, suggestions, criticisms, ideas, news, and features to editor@mynigeria.com. Follow us on all social media platforms at @themynigeria for updates throughout the day. You can also download the MyNigeria App from Google Playstore.
