A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Oyo State, Prince Ayodeji Abass-Aleshinloye (MDII) has felicitated with Nigerians on the occasion of the 64th independence anniversary of the country.
In a statement released through his media office on Tuesday, the former ALGON chairman said in the face of the current challenges, there are still so many things to be thankful for as a nation.
“It is better to use this occasion to focus on the things that unite us, while moving away from issues that drag us backward in our quest to be a progressive nation,” he said.
The grassroots politician noted that the task of making Nigeria great is a collective responsibility by all Nigerians, adding that various arms of government have their responsibilities, while citizens have theirs too.
“Our diversity should not be seen as a weakness but as our greatest strength. It is only in working together that we can build a resilient and thriving nation,” the APC chieftain said.
He urged Nigerians not to lose hope and faith in the progress of the country, expressing optimism that citizens would soon begin to experience the true dividends of democracy.
“Let us be patient with the administration of President Bola Tinubu and give him our unflinching support. Our unity in diversity is our major strength, let us march together for national development,” Aleshinloye added.
