Amidst the challenges plaguing the country, Anambra State Governor, Prof. Chukwuma Charles Soludo, has said that a greater future awaits Nigeria.
Governor Soludo made this declaration during a parade ceremony to celebrate Nigeria’s 64th independence anniversary held at Dr. Alex Ekwueme Square, Awka.
“We’ve gathered yet again this year to celebrate Nigeria’s 64th Independence anniversary. Despite our challenges and triumphs, we have made progress.
“Challenges are many, but amidst all, my message is that our tomorrow will be greater than our today. I see hope. I see prosperity. I see joy.
“We are here to remember the dreams of our founding fathers and the leaders that flew the flag at our independence. We remember all the victims at this hour and all those who suffered in one way or the other poverty, malnutrition, the sick that we could not provide with adequate hospital care and so on and so forth.”
The governor revealed that to build the Nigeria “of our dream,” all Nigerians need to come together so that the nation can be blessed with peace and plenty.
“Nigeria will soon become one of the top five biggest economies in the world if we put our resources together. We are blessed with abundant human and material resources. I see hope in our children and youth.
“Wherever we fail, our prayer is that these children will take over and succeed.
“We must work very hard to give them a secured future, to have a secured Nigeria,” the governor stressed.
“In Anambra, ours is an agenda with a deadline. Thirty months in office, we are running to make sure we deliver on our administration’s five pillars of development.
“In this occasion, I want to thank the members of the armed forces, security agencies who are working to secure our state.
“Again, at this moment, we appreciate and celebrate our past triumphs while looking at the future,” the governor said.
