He recalled that he was in the war front for 30 months during the civil war, adding that like any other Nigerian, he lost relatives and loyal people to the war.

Buhari said considering the fact that   two million Nigerians died during the war, nobody should come forward to talk about a breakup of the country.
He stressed that Nigeria would remain one country since God had given him another opportunity to reorganise its affairs.
