The president was emphatic that anybody seeking the break-up of the country should perish the thought.
He spoke at the Presidential Villa when Federal Capital Territory residents paid him an Eid-el-Fitri homage.
The President said the slogan in the 1970s, “Go On With One Nigeria” (GOWON), is very apt now as keeping Nigeria one is a task that must be done.
He urged the militants to give peace a chance.
Noting that there is a lot of improvement on security in the Northeast area, Buhari said the attention has now shifted to the Niger Delta.

Mr President said, "So that both they and us will be in peace; otherwise, we will continue to look for it."
