The senator representing Imo west and a former governor of Imo state, Rochas Okorocha has called on Nigerian leaders to imbibe the habit of treating every Nigerian like family, irrespective of ethnics or religious differences.
The Senator who spoke on Thursday at a public lecture in Abuja, organised by the All Progressives Congress (APC) press corps said the country needs a leader that will treat citizens like family.
“Any leader that emerges in the country must treat everyone as a family [member] and not segregate [against them],” Okorocha said.
