Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike, has declared that there is nothing for Nigerians to celebrate, as the country marks its 61st independence anniversary on Friday, October 1, 2021.

He said it was regrettable that 61 years after the nation’s independence, it was still grappling with leadership challenges that had entrench hatred, mediocrity, as well as promoted ethnicity and religious intolerance among citizens.

He pointed out that due to leadership failure, the country has been engulfed in insecurity to the extent that everyone now seeks God’s intervention, because man’s leadership had failed the country. Describing the country’s legislature as ‘incapable of thinking’, Wike lampooned the Ninth National Assembly for its penchant for approving anything passed to it from the executive, insisting that the country would lose nothing by conducting free and fair elections.“The legislature approves anything brought to it from the presidency, especially on borrowing. The lawmakers can’t even ask questions about the money we are borrowing and where they are being applied.
