Nigerian Vice President Yemi Osinbajo on Monday advised that citizens of every country in the world should desist from hate speech and unite with their words.

Prof. Osinbajo made the statement during an event commemorating 25th Rwanda Genocide .

Osinbajo says, "The resurgence of hate speech, racism, nationalism and all of the identity type problems that we see around the world today, is frightening and a compelling reason to reflect on what happened in Rwanda, 25 years ago.

"As I joined other leaders from around the world at the 25th Commemoration of the Rwandan Genocide, it is a reminder for individuals, religious leaders and politicians that individually or collectively, we have the power to incite situations that can spin completely out of control. We must unite instead.

"We must remain committed to uniting with our words and actions".
