The don, who explained that the euphoria of the emergence of Tinubu greeted by enthusiasm and hope from the citizens must be well guided, noted that the action-plan of the President must be carefully implemented to ensure rescue and respite for the citizens in the areas of economy, security of lives and property, down to health and education systems, among others.

Babalola noted that the SAs on Peace Matters would also, amidst other responsibilities assigned them, work to ensure government programmes and policies are well tailored towards the realization of actual and somatic peace in the country for individual and and collectivity of the Nigeria’s inhabitants.

According to him, “It is obvious that President Bola Tinubu is serious and sincere about retracing the country’s path to greatness as the pride of the world Black race; this is an effort that starts with good governance and sincerity of purpose but more importantly, we must begin to rebuild the pillars of peace upon which other heavy weights would rest.

“Peace is very important to nation building and the WPO would be ready to offer that service to Nigeria by giving our people to serve the government towards ensuring peace building and sustainability from amidst the locales , citizens and denizens of this country.

“There are a lot of work to be done, Nigeria must get it right now or never, we must not joke with internal peace and this does not come with militarization as it leads to negativity and glorification of violence thereafter, but a strategic move which involves all participants and stakeholders would bring Nigeria back to its toes.

“Some areas to focus will include geographical, religion, tribe and also we must ensure that people are safe from harm, have access to law and justice which include political decisions that affects them. We will also collaborate with the relevant government agencies comprehensively.

“We are sure that with the support of all and sundry, the administration of Bola Tinubu would bring Nigeria to the limelight as one of the global reckons.

“We, at the WPO have made a resolve and we are very ready to ensure that Nigeria under Tinubu becomes a melting pot for all cultures, sentiments, and beliefs, where business would thrive, where great understanding and cordial relationship exist among the different ethnic, political and religious groups.

“We will be presenting the special advisers and the special assistants to the president very soon and we are sure Nigeria would be better for it in no distant time.”
