The statement maintained that war serves as a potent warning on the dangers of aggressive regionalism, ethnic baiting, and political corruption noting that Nigerians must forge common memory that can serve as a bridge to a future free from the ravages of sectarianism.

The statement added that Nigerians should move forward together and live in peace rather than repeat its mistakes, preaching inflammatory rhetoric meant only to divide.
