62nd Independence Day : Make Diversity Our Strength, Not Weakness, Osun Gov-elect Ademola Adeleke Tells Nigerians
Osun state Governor-Elect, former
Senator Ademola Adeleke , has asked Nigerians to ensure that they make the nation’s diversity become a source of strength and not weakness, noting that
Nigeria holds a lot of promises as a united country.
In a statement issued to congratulate
Nigerians on the 62nd Independence anniversary of the country which was made
available to Team@orientactualmags.com by his spokesman, Mallam Olawale Rasheed , the Governor-elect said the journey of the
last 62 years had shown that ‘we are good as one irrespective of our differences’, while calling on Nigerians to explore dialogue and
concessions in addressing their grievances.
‘Today, we are reminded of the sacrifices
that gave us the freedom we now enjoy. 62 years ago, Nigeria escaped the grip
of servitude and secured freedom from colonial rule, heralding a vision of a country where we pursue our own dreams. It is an important day and I
congratulate every Nigerian..
Independence anniversary is more than just a
holiday but a time for us to celebrate the freedom to dream, the tenacity to
act and the assurance that we are a great country if we all contribute our part to nation -building.
Our diversity defines us as a nation, the
strength on which we rest, and the power that can be leveraged for greatness, even as we are constantly faced with questions with regard to managing it’ he
noted.
The Governor-elect urged Nigerians to
keep hopes alive and pay serious attention to matters that had to do with choosing good and great leaders. He advised Nigerians to shun sentiments as they go to the poll next year to elect
leaders at the state and federal levels.
‘It is right that there are challenges but I
can assure you they are not insurmountable. This is why Nigerians should ignore
sentiments and choose the right leaders in next year’s elections to improve their situation’ he said.
The Governor-elect restated his commitment
to delivering good governance to Osun state people as he takes office next month, declaring that ‘just as I have always assured, I will
focus on improving the lives of Osun people and make all resources count
for their benefits’- Team@orientactualmags.com Do you have any
