NNPP Chieftain, Sameul Sogbeinde, greets Resilient Nigerians on Democracy Day
Former Ogun State House of Assembly Candidate of the New
Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) during the 2023 general polls, Honourable Samuel Ololade Sogbeinde, has commended the resilience of Nigerians in the face of challenges
as the country marked its 26th year of democracy.
The Democracy Day, according to the NNPP Chieftain, marked a
significant milestone in the history of Nigeria as a nation.
Sogbeinde, in a message addressed to Nigerians, described
the day as a moment to reflect on the journey undertaken by Nigerians in a bid to
uphold democratic values.
The politician explained that the remembrance of the
significant day is to appreciate the progress the country have made and as to
reaffirm our commitment to the principles of freedom, justice, and equality for
all citizens.
“On this auspicious occasion of 2025 Democracy Day and 32
years anniversary of the famous struggles of the June 12th, 1993, we
celebrate not just the establishment of democratic governance in our beloved
country, but the enduring spirit of the Nigerian people, who have shown
remarkable resilience, determination, and unity in the face of diverse
challenges.
“As we commemorate this day, let us remember the sacrifices
of those who fought tirelessly for the democracy we enjoy today, especially Chief
Moshood Kashimawo Olawale Abiola GCFR, the winner of the June, 12, 1993
presidential poll.
“In the spirit of
democracy, it is imperative that our leaders at all levels address the
challenges we are facing as a nation, especially the unemployment, economic and
security challenges, as well as ensuring good governance to deliver dividends
of democracy to the poor masses.”
Sogbeinde, however, called for more participation of Nigerian
youths in the political activities from ward level to the national level.
