Team New Nigeria has congratulated Nigerians on the 61st independence anniversary of Nigeria.
In a statement sent to Neptune Prime, the National President of Team New Nigeria, Dr Yakubun Modibbo Farakwai asserted that the independence anniversary is a milestone that is worth celebrating because despite the challenges of nationhood; Nigeria has remained together as a nation.
Dr Modibbo noted that whereas the corporate existence of the nation is presently threatened by various inadequacies, there has been modest gains of democracy which should be acknowledged as signs that Nigeria is making progress.
In His words, Dr Modibbo opined that “as much as Nigeria is still a work in progress, there are gains that cannot be denied and they are visible in the transportation sector where the railways have been resuscitated across Nigeria. There is also no Nigerian state where there isn’t as much as 4 federal projects ongoing simultaneously across critical sectors to address the infrastructure deficit in the country.”
He further stated that “the anti-corruption war is commendable and the office of the attorney general of the federation has continued to play a frontline role in insulating the nation from various unpatriotic elements and their collaborators especially in the case involving Nigeria and the Process and Industrial Developments Limited where over $9B of Nigeria’s assets were to be taken over across the world by such elements.”
Similarly, National Publicity Secretary of Team New Nigeria, Dr Mohammed Adah Shaibu has also urged Nigerians to be resolute in their faith in the nation because Nigeria has every resource she requires to prosper.
He advised state actors to be more patriotic in their actions and utterances on sensitive issues like security, rotational leadership, resource allocation and the 2023 general elections stressing that for any of the existing contentious issues to be resolved, there first has to be a safe and peaceful Nigeria.
