The All Progressives Congress (APC) affirms that President Bola Tinubu’s ‘Renewed Hope Agenda’ is progressing as planned, promising brighter days ahead for the people of Nigeria.
In a statement released in Abuja on Wednesday, the party’s National Publicity Secretary, Mr. Felix Morka, extended congratulations to Nigerians on the occasion of Democracy Day 2024, acknowledging the significant role played by past patriots in securing the democracy that the nation enjoys today.
After enduring years of military rule, Nigeria transitioned to civilian democracy in 1999, marking 25 years of continuous democratic governance.
Looking forward, Morka emphasized the importance of democratic consolidation and prosperity for all citizens, urging Nigerians to take pride in the nation’s progress and accomplishments.
He highlighted the essence of political democracy, emphasizing the power it grants to citizens to select their leaders and hold them accountable through established democratic processes.
While acknowledging the imperfections and challenges that come with democracy, Morka underscored the resilience of the country in navigating setbacks and disappointments, ultimately aiming to build a strong and vibrant nation.
Democracy, in his view, offers the essential freedom for effective governance by harnessing the nation’s resources under the participatory authority of the people.
President Tinubu was praised as a veteran advocate for democracy and a progressive leader whose contributions to democracy and nation-building have been monumental.
Under Tinubu’s leadership, the administration has made significant strides in infrastructure development, economic expansion, security enhancement, social investments, poverty alleviation, and engagement with stakeholders to improve the quality of life for Nigerians.
The administration’s focus on economic growth, security reform, and social welfare initiatives has garnered international validation, with forecasts predicting substantial economic growth in the coming years.
President Tinubu’s commitment to addressing challenges head-on while striving for a better future reflects his dedication to delivering sustainable progress and prosperity for the nation.
Morka expressed gratitude for the unwavering support from Nigerians towards the Tinubu-led administration and the APC, expressing optimism that the ongoing democratic journey would pave the way for economic freedom and a brighter future for all citizens.
