The Edo State Governor, Godwin Obaseki, has urged Nigerians to hold steadfast to the belief in the assured prosperous future of the country.
Obaseki who stated this in a statement in commemoration of the 64th Independence Day, said this is realisable even as we all individually and collectively play our part in realising the noble vision of our founding fathers.
He said, “My dear good people of Edo State, I join you in marking Nigeria’s 64th Independence Day celebration, as we journey together on the path of building a strong, virile and prosperous nation.
“This is another day to celebrate our shared experience as compatriots of the world’s largest black nation, which has over time defied all odds in reinventing itself and showcasing the indomitable spirit of its various peoples.
“As a nation, we have grown stronger, are more united and have trudged together to overcome threats to our nation. Today, at 64, we have much to be thankful for, in the face of daunting global headwinds that have rocked many nations. It is imperative to restate our commitment to democracy even in the face of pressures from different interests that seek to set us back.
“As we celebrate Nigeria’s Independence Day today, I urge you all to hold steadfast to the belief in the assured prosperous future of our great State and the Nigerian nation even as we all individually and collectively play our part in realizing the noble vision of our founding fathers.”
