\u201cFrom our earliest struggles for independence to the present day, we\u2019ve shown resilience and determination.<\/p>\n
\u201cAs we move forward, I urge you to be patient and hopeful, our brightest days are ahead of us, and together, we\u2019ll build a prosperous nation that our children and future generations will be proud of.<\/p>\n
\u201cI plead with you to support the present administration and hope for the better.<\/p>\n
\u201cI commend President Bola Ahmed Tinubu\u2019s leadership, which has given us a renewed hope for a better Nigeria, his courage and dedication are truly inspirational,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
The former Akwa-Ibom State Governor further reiterated that the 10th National Assembly had passed several pro-development laws aimed at renewing collective aspirations for citizens and fostering growth in key sectors.<\/p>\n
\u201cLet\u2019s celebrate our achievements and acknowledge the progress we\u2019ve made.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019re working tirelessly to rejuvenate our economy, empower our people, and lift up the most vulnerable.<\/p>\n
\u201cHappy 64th independence anniversary, Nigeria,\u201d Akpabio said.<\/p>\n
