Deputy President of the Senate, Senator Jibrin Barau, called on Nigerians to stay united and committed to national progress, emphasizing the need to support the Tinubu administration.
In a statement issued by his Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Ismail Mudashir, Barau noted that Nigeria’s founding fathers made great sacrifices to secure independence and that the principles of unity, peace, justice, and tolerance must continue to guide the nation.
The Deputy Senate President stated, “Fellow Nigerians, happy Independence Day. As we celebrate the 65th Independence Anniversary of our beloved country, we must remember the enormous sacrifices made by our founding fathers, Dr Nnamdi Azikiwe, Chief Obafemi Awolowo, Sir Ahmadu Bello and Sir Abubakar Tafawa Balewa, among others, and recommit ourselves to the ideals they stood for.
“Yes, at 65, we have some challenges facing us as a country, but we will overcome them. Our country, the Federal Republic of Nigeria, will emerge stronger from its present challenges, by God’s grace.”
He observed that the gains of Tinubu’s economic reforms are already becoming evident and that the nation’s security situation has improved significantly over the past two years.
“Let us continue to support President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to actualise his policies and programmes as encapsulated in the Renewed Hope Agenda. He has good intentions for the country. We will get it right,” Barau stated.
