Nigeria 61: What Governors Said In Their Independence Speeches

“But today, after 61 years of independence and 22 years of unbroken democracy, it only seems there’s not much to be excited about Nigeria except our notional sense of independence and unity that had endured this long in the face of sustained fratricidal assaults to its existence.

“Neither is the situation and postures of the nation’s judiciary any better, where only a few judicial officers can stand the test of judicial courage, integrity and commitment to substantial justice in the performance of their constitutional responsibilities, while the entire judiciary, especially at the national level, has been bullied to nervousness to the detriment of our democracy, the rule of law and social justice.

He further called on the chairman of the Nigerian Governors Forum and the governor of Ekiti State, Kayode Fayemi, to immediately convene a meeting of all Nigerian governors to address the development. He said his administration’s strategy to end farmers/herders crises had yielded positive results since the last two years.

“The introduction of the Safe Schools Initiative which is aimed at promoting safe environments for education state-wide, starting with the de-boarding of students where security is not guarantee within the state. A statement signed by Solomon Kumasngar, the director general media and communications, said their release would take effect after all legal formalities have been concluded.

This was as he sought peaceful coexistence among the citizenry and pleaded with his political opponents for their support to move Gombe forward. “Our ability to maintain unity in the midst of diversity is without doubt our greatest source of strength; it is the catalyst that keeps us going, making us one of the fastest developing states in the country, despite the relatively lean financial resources available to the state.”

“The Hashidu administration also recorded significant milestones in the housing sector, construction of access roads in rural and urban areas, and provision of financial loans to individuals and cooperatives in order to boost self-reliance and reduce poverty. Similarly, the administration constructed office complexes for civil servants, the judiciary and the legislature.
