As Nigeria celebrates Democracy Day, pro-democracy groups have urged other leaders in the country to follow in the steps of President Bola Tinubu and the Governor Siminalayi Fubara, whom they described as true nationalists and patriots.
Under the auspices of the Democratic Coalition Project for A New Nigeria (DCPNN), the groups said Tinubu has made sacrifices over the years and shown commitment to democratic values, economic growth, and social justice.
According to a statement signed by the group’s president Comrade Emmanuel Adewole, Tinubu’s leadership has rekindled hope and inspired a new generation of Nigerians to embrace democracy.
On Fubara, Adewole said the “courageous” governor has ended godfatherism in Rivers and returned power to the people which is the true hallmark of democracy.”
He also acknowledged the governor’s efforts at promoting peace, development, and good governance as well as dedication to the welfare of his people.
“On this momentous occasion of Democracy Day, the Democratic Coalition Project for a New Nigeria salutes two exemplary leaders, President Bola Tinubu and Governor Siminalayi Fubara, whose unwavering dedication to democratic principles and patriotism has inspired a nation,” the statement said.
“President Tinubu’s political philosophy, rooted in progressive democracy, has consistently emphasized the importance of economic growth, social justice, and good governance.
