“Nigeria as the only country most nations in African continent depend on for economic survival and other factors must not break, we must remain united in spite of the current challenges,” he said.
Aremu also called on Nigerians to join hands with the Federal Government in its bid to finding a permanent solution to the security challenges confronting the nation.
The DG expressed gratitude to President Muhammadu Buhari; the Chief of Staff to the President, Prof. Ibrahim Gambari; and the Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Mr. Boss Mustapha, over his appointment.
He described the appointment as a testimony of the labour friendly attitude of the Buhari administration.
