As we commemorate Nigeria’s 64th Independence Day, I reflect on the remarkable journey our nation has taken since 1960. This day is a reminder of our resilience, unity, and the incredible potential that lies within each Nigerian.
Over the years, we have faced challenges, yet we have continued to rise above them, driven by the spirit of patriotism and the desire for progress. Today, let us honor the sacrifices of our forebearers who fought for our freedom and recognize the ongoing efforts of those working tirelessly to build a better future for all.
In the Ministry of Works, we remain committed to advancing infrastructure development across our great nation. We understand that quality roads, bridges, and public works are essential for fostering economic growth and improving the lives of our citizens. Together, let us work towards creating a Nigeria that we can all be proud of.
As we celebrate, I urge everyone to reflect on our shared values and the strength we gain from our diversity. Let us come together to promote peace, understanding, and collaboration as we strive for national development.
Happy Independence Day to all Nigerians! May our beloved country continue to thrive and prosper.
