In a statement by the director information in his office , Segun Imohiosen, the SGF described  Gowon as an untrammeled icon of unity and a champion of national integration and peaceful co-existence in the country as exemplified by the formation of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) during his administration in order to give sense of oneness to all Nigerians irrespective of ethnic and religious divides.

“As a trailblazing statesman, his unflinching quest for unity transcends the frontiers of the nation as he co-founded the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) in order to bring unity and promote economic cooperation among member states in the African sub-region.

“We thank him for always praying for the unity and prosperity of the nation through his non-denominational prayer group, *Nigeria Prays,* and wish him robust health and sound mind as the nation keeps tapping from his wealth of wisdom,” he added.

Similarly, Plateau State Governor Caleb Mutfwang has joined other Nigerians and leaders within and outside the country to celebrate Gowon on his 90th birthday.
