64th Independence Day: There’s still hope for Nigeria – Gov. Fintiri

Governor Ahmadu Fintiri of Adamawa State has expressed optimism of a brighter future for Nigeria as the nation marks 64th Independence Day anniversary.

Fintiri also called for unity to provide good governance and democratic dividends for the citizens.

He stated this in a statement by his Chief Press Secretary, Humwashi Wonosikou, on Tuesday in Yola.

The governor said Nigeria has made significant progress since the return to democracy 24 years ago.

“On the current hardship in the land, I see hope in Nigeria’s future. Let’s work together to provide good governance and democracy dividends.”

Fintiri stressed the need for self-reflection and collective responsibility to address the country’s weaknesses, adding that, “success can only be achieved by accepting responsibility for actions and rejecting the blame game.”

“Some of these weaknesses are within our means to correct, but we will only succeed if we are brave and honest enough to accept responsibility for our actions and reject the convenient attitude of playing the victim and blaming others,” he said.

Fintiri restated commitment to inclusive governance, ensuring that every citizen of the state benefits from his administration’s efforts.

“I commend you all for reaching this milestone, surviving pitfalls, and regaining dignity through democracy. Though 64 years is brief for a nation, we’ve had time to make significant changes.

“My administration will continue empowering Adamawa citizens through human capital development and infrastructure investments, boosting the economy and improving living conditions.

“Let us unite in supporting the government’s initiatives and work together towards a brighter future,” he said.

The governor also lauded security agencies for maintaining peace in the state, and urged the citizens not to compromise the hard earned peace.
