Nigeria at 64: Our mistakes should not follow us into the future – Tinubu

President Bola Tinubu said has urged Nigerians not to allow past mistakes jeopardize the nation’s future.

Tinubu, who made this call on Tuesday, said his administration’s reforms were necessary to enable Nigeria become one of the greatest nations on earth, as destined by God.

The President, in a national broadcast to mark the 64th Independence Anniversary, said the reforms became necessary to guarantee a secured future.

Going down memory lane, he recalled that Nigeria’s founding fathers chose democracy 64 years ago in the bid to launch the dream of a great country that would lead the rest of Africa out of poverty and ignorance.

According to him, since independence in 1960, the nation had survived many crises and upheavals that led to the dissolution and disintegration of many other nations worldwide.



He said that the nation had learned to embrace its diversity and manage its differences better as the people continued to work towards engendering a more perfect union.

“Our independence anniversary gives us another chance to reflect on how far we have gone in our journey to nation-building and renew our commitment to building a better nation that will serve present and future generations of Nigerians.

“While we celebrate the progress we have made as a people in the last 64 years, we must also recognise some of our missed opportunities and mistakes of the past.

“If we are to become one of the greatest nations on earth, as God has destined us to be, our mistakes must not be allowed to follow us into the future,” he said.
