Sir Lucky Omoluwa pledged to continue promoting peace, tolerance and mutual understanding.
“If we have Peace Ambassadors in every home there will be peace everywhere. I will preach peace and make people understand that its better to live together than to live apart,” he declared.
A cross section of those who attended the event commended the UN for domesticating the appointment of World Peace Ambassadors in Nigeria as a significant initiative to encourage people to embrace peaceful coexistence and shun divisive tendencies.
