Former Deputy President of the Senate, Senator Ovie Omo-Agege has said after the initial hiccups that came with the efforts to reposition the country, it is clear that Nigeria is on the right track and now requires all hands to be on deck for the path to full recovery.
Omo-Agege, in his message to mark Nigeria’s 64th Independence anniversary, stated that Nigeria has turned a corner away from the days of downward slide.
“The worst is over for the country. I believe we have weathered the storm and on the verge of return to growth again.
“What is required now is not a resort to actions that will undermine and disrupt the path to economic stability through strikes and protests.
“All men and women of goodwill should see it as a duty to support the government and sign up to taking advantage of the various reform initiatives.
“With the autonomy granted the local governments through the Supreme Court pronouncement, all tiers and levers of government are now primed to exert their potential and capabilities.
“The instruments for energising the economy at grassroot level have been revved into gear at the councils.
“President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s bold reforms and economic pathway hold the key to consolidating the better future that awaits. We should continue to support him,” he said in a press release issued by Sunny Areh, his Media Adviser.
He wished all Nigerians a fruitful 64th anniversary and a greater tomorrow.
