Former President Goodluck Jonathan allayed fears of Nigeria’s fragmentation ahead of the 2023 general elections on Monday, saying the country would still exist.
He made the remarks during the Council of the WISE strategic retreat and planning workshop conducted in Lagos by the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS).
“When elections are coming, there is always this fear that the country will implode. But you see that the country has remained stable,” he said.
