The senator representing Kwara Central in the National Assembly, Saliu Mustapha, has called on Nigerians to embrace patriotism and renew their commitment to democratic values, including equality, accountability, transparency and respect for human rights.
He made the call while congratulating Nigerians on the occasion of this year’s Democracy Day.
Mustapha reflected on Nigeria’s journey towards freedom, justice, and democratic governance and pointed out that, “June 12 is more than just a date on the calendar; it symbolizes the collective will of the Nigerian people and the enduring spirit of democracy.”
“Our democracy remains work in progress, and each citizen has a vital role in nurturing and sustaining it. By coming together and setting aside differences, we can build a stronger, more inclusive Nigeria,” he said.
While congratulating Nigerians on the journey so far, the federal lawmaker urged them to remain steadfast in their commitment to democracy.
