Lack of unity cause of Nigeria’s problems – Jonathan

President Goodluck Jonathan on Sunday said most of the problems facing the country had been persisting because Nigerians lacked the needed unity to confront them.

He said if citizens had confronted the challenges in the same manner they confronted the Ebola Virus Disease recently, they would have become things of the past.

He said the country was able to overcome Ebola within a short period because the Federal Government cooperated with the governments of Lagos and Rivers State where cases were reported despite the fact that the states belong to the opposition party.

He said, “The only thing is to appeal to all of us Nigerians to be united. If we are united, there is nothing we cannot conquer. Take the case of Ebola and this is a good example that all Nigerians must learn.
