He said, “I don’t believe in the notion that this country will break up. Nigeria will never break up. This is an idea of God and he will uphold the country. Nigeria is one of the most powerful countries of the world, that’s why the devil is fighting us. All we need is sustainable policies and leadership that will lead the country aright and I see God bringing that about soon in the country.

“There are many Nigerians who are passionate and believe in the country. There are many experts that the country is blessed with and they will soon take charge of the country.”

Speaking on the solution to Nigeria’s challenges, Gana said the PDP was capable of resolving the problems.

He said, “I am a politician. I appreciate the PDP and I am sure we shall use the party to solve Nigeria’s problem and the rest will be history.”

Gana also expressed the need to transform the administration, the establishment and operation of universities in country.

According to him, the Federal Government and the university community must maintain optimal and continuous excellent performance in educating the minds of the teeming Nigerian youths, who pass through tertiary institutions to build an enviable country.
