Governor Ahmed called on Nigerians to build on the heterogeneity of the country as a source of strength as exemplified by the United States of America.
According to him, Islam preaches peace, love and good neighbourliness, "therefore, ethnic plurality should constitutes a source of strengthen for national integration rather than a division."
The Governor Ahmed who congratulated FOMWAN for the choice of Kwara called on the Association to conduct a critical examination of family's role in building national integration .
The Sultan of Sokoto, Alhaji Saad Abubakar, at the conference charged Muslim women to make themselves relevant by lending their voices to national issues.
