Governor Abiodun said: “On this 64th Independence Day, let us draw strength from the labours of our founding fathers. Let us reflect on the past, learn from it, and recommit ourselves to building a society where every Nigerian has the opportunity to fulfill their potential. As citizens, we must return to the values of hard work, honesty, justice, equity, and respect for authority.
“Today, Nigeria faces turbulent economic times. Global economic pressures, coupled with domestic challenges, have placed significant strain on our resources. Rising inflation, unemployment, and the cost of living have impacted the lives of many, creating anxiety about the future. These challenges are real and urgent, requiring immediate and sustained action. As citizens, this is a time for deep reflection and prayer for the continued progress and stability of our nation.
“We must remain united, support one another, and be patient as we work together to navigate this journey. The President’s economic policies are designed to foster long-term stability and sustainable growth, and they require our collective commitment and sacrifice from all of us.
“As an administration, we recognize the gravity of the socio-economic situation in Nigeria today. It is the result of years of complex issues—misguided policies, leadership failures, and poor governance. However, I want to reassure you that the current administration, ably led by our indomitable leader, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu (GCFR), is fully aware of these challenges and is deeply committed to reversing this trajectory.”
