As we commemorate June 12 Democracy Day, we honor the sacrifices of our forebears who fought tirelessly for our freedom and democracy. This day symbolizes the unwavering commitment to democratic principles and human rights that define our nation’s spirit.
The struggle for June 12 is a testament to the bravery and patriotism of Nigerians who withstood oppressive regimes and demanded a better future for themselves and generations to come. We pay tribute to the memories of those who lost their lives and those who continue to inspire us with their stories of resilience.
The present administration, led by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR, has shown remarkable leadership in restoring the lost glory of our nation. We appreciate the recognition given to the late Chief MKO Abiola, a symbol of our struggle for democracy.
As we celebrate this milestone, we urge citizens to remain law-abiding and supportive of the APC-led administration’s efforts to tackle the challenges facing our country. We also call on political office holders to prioritize the welfare of the masses and demonstrate kindness, good character, and competence in their duties.
As we look ahead to the 2027 elections, we advise stakeholders and electorates to support leaders who embody these values. Together, we can build a brighter future for our nation.
Happy June 12 Democracy Day!
