“Our commitment to fortifying our institutions and maintaining democracy as the cornerstone of governance is imperative,” he stated.
Paying homage to the sacrifices of democratic heroes such as Chief MKO Abiola, Alhaja Kudirat Abiola, Alfred Rewane, and other valiant figures who laid down the path to democracy, Chief Amuzu called upon Nigerians to cherish and advance this heritage by fostering unity, justice, and equal rights for all citizens.
He highlighted the necessity of transcending political divides to collectively enhance the nation’s welfare.
Chief Amuzu appealed to all citizens to stand together in harmony and dedication to democratic ideals and principles, thereby promoting the nation’s collective well-being.
