President Bola Tinubu has called on Nigerians to remain hopeful and steadfast despite the current challenges facing the country.
Tinubu made the call on Tuesday during his Independence Day speech, commemorating Nigeria’s 64th anniversary.
He noted that resilience and tenacity have historically defined Nigerians, urging the people to continue believing in the nation’s potential.
The president emphasised that every citizen plays a vital role as an agent of change, stating that the nation’s destiny lies in the hands of its people.
Tinubu assured Nigerians that, with collective support, the country would overcome its present difficulties and move towards a brighter future.
He, however, urged Nigerians to join his administration in building a nation where opportunities are accessible to all and every child can grow up with hope and promise.
He said, “Fellow Nigerians, better days are ahead of us. The challenges of the moment must always make us believe in ourselves. We are Nigerians—resilient and tenacious. We always prevail and rise above our circumstances.
“I urge you to believe in our nation’s promise. The road ahead may be challenging, but we will forge a path toward a brighter future with your support. Together, we will cultivate a Nigeria that reflects the aspirations of all its citizens, a nation that resonates with pride, dignity, and shared success.
“As agents of change, we can shape our destiny and build a brighter future by ourselves, for ourselves and for future generations.
“Please join our administration in this journey towards a brighter future. Let us work together to build a greater Nigeria where every citizen can access opportunities and every child can grow up with hope and promise.”
