As Nigeria marked its 65th Independence Anniversary on Sunday, the Federal Government appealed to citizens to be patient with the ongoing reforms of the Bola Tinubu administration, assuring that the policies would yield lasting benefits.
The Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Senator George Akume, who spoke at an inter-denominational church service at the National Ecumenical Christian Centre, Abuja, described governance as a “shared responsibility” and urged Nigerians to remain united and supportive of the government’s efforts.
“Under the leadership of President Bola Tinubu, our nation is undergoing bold reforms aimed not at temporary relief but at lasting transformation,” Akume said in a statement issued by his media aide, Yomi Odunuga.
He acknowledged the hardship currently faced by Nigerians but insisted that the sacrifices would pave the way for national renewal.
Calling for collective effort, Akume added, “Our challenges are real, but our resilience is greater. This is the moment to rekindle our national spirit, transform challenges into opportunities, and drive forward with hope grounded in action.”
The SGF also stressed that Independence Day was not just a remembrance of history but “a renewal of purpose,” urging citizens to contribute to building a just and prosperous nation.
