– congratulates President Tinubu, Nigerians.
The Deputy Speaker, House of Representatives, Rt. Hon. Benjamin Okezie Kalu has affirmed that Nigeria is on a transformative journey toward becoming a great nation in all areas of development.
Kalu’s statement was made in light of the silver jubilee celebrations marking 25 years of uninterrupted democratic governance in Nigeria.
It should be noted that Nigeria transitioned back to democracy in 1999 following an extended period of military rule and has since maintained this democratic trajectory without interruption.
In a statement released by his Chief Press Secretary, Mr. Levinus Nwabughiogu, Kalu highlighted that Nigeria’s path to greatness is reflected in the 25 years of continuous democratic governance, which has ultimately returned political power to the people, redefined leadership, restored hope, and set the country on the course of rapid growth and development.
While acknowledging some current challenges, Kalu called for collective action from all stakeholders in the Nigerian project to help realize the dreams of the founding fathers, expressing strong optimism for a brighter future for all citizens.
In the statement signed by Levinus Nwabughiogu, his Chief Press Secretary, the Deputy Speaker expressed his delight that Nigerians have wholeheartedly embraced democracy and its principles. He urged the populace to have faith in the current leadership under President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to deliver the anticipated benefits.
He also reaffirmed the commitment of the House of Representatives, and indeed the National Assembly, which he described as the cornerstone of democracy, to ensuring good governance through the passage of legislation that prioritizes the needs of the people.
Congratulating President Tinubu and the entire nation on this significant milestone, Kalu assured that Nigeria will continue to celebrate many more years of unbroken democratic rule.
