Independence

By Sarafina Christopher

Igwe Samuel Asadu, the Chairman, Enugu State Council of Traditional Rulers, has felicitated with President Bola Tinubu, the Federal Government and all Nigerians as the nation marks its 65 years of independence.

Nigeria gained independence on Oct. 1, 1960.

The traditional ruler conveyed his felicitations in a statement made available to newsmen on Tuesday in Abuja.

Asadu, who is also the Traditional Ruler of Edem Ani Ogugwu Ancient Kingdom in Nsukka Local Government Area of Enugu State, also congratulated Gov. Peter Mbah and the people of Enugu State.

Asadu extolled the unwavering spirit of Nigerians whose sacrifices and dedication continued to sustain the nation’s unity and progress.

He hailed the courage of Nigeria’s founding fathers and celebrated the resilience and diversity that characterised the strength of the nation.

Asadu, who is the immediate past Chairman of South East Traditional Rulers, commended the ongoing efforts to reposition the economy, strengthen democratic institutions, and foster national renewal.

He urged Nigerians at home and in the diaspora to remain steadfast in love for the country, united in purpose, and committed to the shared vision of a peaceful and prosperous Nigeria.

Asadu prayed for God’s wisdom, strength, and protection for Tinubu, Mbah and others as they steered the affairs of the nation and called for continued peace, equity, and development across all parts of Nigeria.

“On behalf of Enugu State Traditional Rulers and the good people of Edem Ani Ogugwu ancient kingdom, I extend my heartfelt felicitations to Tinubu, Mbah, the Federal Government, and all Nigerians at home and in the diaspora.

“I commend the dedication to national renewal, economic transformation, and the strengthening of democratic institutions.

“These efforts reflect a commitment to the Nigeria of our dreams, one where equity, justice, and prosperity are shared by all.’’

According to him, the anniversary is a solemn reminder that the task of nation-building belongs to every Nigerian.

“Let us therefore remain steadfast in love for our country, united in purpose, and unwavering in our collective resolve to overcome current challenges and secure a brighter future for generations yet unborn.

“May the Almighty God bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria, guide our leaders, and grant us lasting unity and prosperity.

“Happy 65th Independence Anniversary, Nigeria!” Asadu said.(NAN)
