Nigeria
“United Nigerians abroad, enemies at home” — Obasanjo
According to former president Olusegun Obasanjo, Nigerians are more unified when they are outside of the nation but behave more hostilely when they are at home.
Obasanjo asked Nigerians in the diaspora to display the same level of togetherness when they return home after being moved by the solidarity shown by Nigerians living in the United States of America.
At a nighttime celebration hosted in New Brunswick, New Jersey, USA, he made this statement on behalf of a delegation of distinguished traditional leaders and scholars, which also included Oba Saka Matemilola, the Olowu of the Owu Kingdom.
According to a statement by his Special Assistant on Media, Kehinde Akinyemi, Obasanjo reminded those in attendance that Nigerians living abroad are doing the nation proud in their many fields of endeavor and urged them to behave responsibly wherever they call home.
When Nigerians travel, they often form strong bonds, but when they return home, they typically form other bonds.
When they returned to Nigeria, the former president urged them to behave well both within and outside of the nation.
The Balogun Owu commended Rutgers University administration for their “far-reaching engagements” and for the warm welcome they gave the group.
