I Sunny  B .Omachi  wish to express my profound gratitude to the Governor of Kogi state, Alh Ahmed Usman Ododo for appointing me as his Senior Special Assistant ( SSA) on Grassroots Sensitization and Mobilization.    I consider the appointment as a challenge to use my wealth of experience and professional media training to add value to public enlightenment and Mobilization, especially at the grassroots in order to change narratives of underreporting of government activities, thereby bridging the communication gap between government and the people.    I also express my deepest appreciation to the Rt.

RELIGIOUS HARMONY, TOLERANCE AND PEACEFUL COEXISTENCE IN NIGERIA: Best Strategies for Socio-Economic and Political Growth, and Development

Image
INTRODUCTION: Why This Conversation Matters Now Nigeria is often described in two ways: as the “Giant of Africa” and as one of the most religious Nations on earth. We are roughly 230 million people, over 250 ethnic groups, and two dominant faiths: Christianity and Islam - living side by side, with traditional beliefs woven through both.  That diversity should be our greatest asset. Yet too often, religion becomes the fault line for division instead of the bridge for development.  The truth is simple: "No nation grows economically or politically where there is no peace.
