SPECIAL 53RD INDEPENDENCE ANNIVERSARY MESSAGE
FROM STEPHEN O.
J. ON 1ST OCTOBER, 2013
Fellow citizens of Nigeria
home and abroad, as today 1st October, 2013 marked Nigeria’s 53rd
independence anniversary; be rest assured that better days are ahead and we
would live to enjoy it sooner than soonest. So, let everyone of us start giving
judiciously towards the betterment of our great nation.
It is not a mistake to be a
Nigerian inspite of the poor state of the nation in some respects but it is an error
for any Nigerian to lose faith in Nigeria. Always be proud of your earthly citizenship
of Nigerian origin. I believe things can still get better in this part of the
world and Nigeria can be the praise of the earth – a center of Global
Attraction.
Citizens of the leading nations in
the world are not from the mass nor do they have 2 heads. They are only
committed to building their societies without equal. When all of Nigerians
embrace revolution within (that is: positive shift of our mentality and
orientations towards national concerns), the prosperity of Nigeria will stand. We
have talked enough about the problems of this nation. Let us begin to proffer
credible solutions to all our national challenges.
The very best life achievable anywhere in the world will also be obtainable here in Nigeria if all the citizens are diligently giving towards making it possible. Come to think of it, we wouldn't always be in a rush to check out of our country to enjoy the goodness of other nations had the people there failed to make their respective fatherlands center of excellence.
I believe
the best of Nigeria will surely become - when all of us faithfully work at it
with one mind and one voice as a people by pulling down the walls of
differences, corruption, Godlessness and lack of patriotism that is destroying
us.
Towards building a nation where every
citizen count, we
should develop a strategy to collectively run this nation in a way that all her
components will be richly empowered as a whole. This will rule out biased focus
on the development of only a single unit or selected units out of the whole components that make
up our country. Either we together live in harmony or we die in agony. Be a true Nigerian - pursue national interest.
Peace and tranquility shall always be our experience in this land - I pray in Jesus name.
OUR DESIRED NIGERIA ................... loading.
