The Acting President, Yemi Osinbajo, on Thursday said Nigerians should learn from history of the country’s civil war rather than beat drums of a second civil war.
Osinbajo, who is currently delivering a keynote address at an event organised to mark Biafra at 50, in Abuja said, “while the wise learn from history, experience remains the best teacher for a fool.”
The Acting President said while it is kinder to learn from history, experience is a harsh teacher.
Stressing that there was no harm in discussing the nation’s existence, Osinbajo called on Nigerians to use the country’s diversity to make her great, “instead of trying to flee into the lazy comfort of homogeneity.”
