On this momentous occasion of June 12, Democracy Day, Hon. E. J. Agbonayinma, former House of Representatives Member representing Egor/Ikpoba Okha Federal Constituency , extends his heartfelt message to fellow Nigerians, celebrating the spirit of democracy and offering a renewed sense of hope and unity.

“June 12 holds a significant place in the history of our nation as a day that represents the unyielding fight for democracy and the power of the people’s voice. It is a day that reminds us of the sacrifices made by Chief MKO Abiola, the esteemed symbol of June 12 and Democracy Day itself.

His unwavering commitment to democratic ideals and the ultimate sacrifice he paid for the cause should forever be remembered and honored.

In celebrating this day, it is also important to recognize the contributions of various individuals who played pivotal roles in the struggle for June 12 and the subsequent advancement of democracy in Nigeria.

We must acknowledge the efforts of our esteemed leader, President Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, who has been a tireless advocate for democratic governance and has made significant contributions to our nation’s progress. His unwavering commitment to democracy and the well-being of Nigerians cannot be overstated.

Furthermore, we must recognize that the journey towards a strong and prosperous nation is not a one-person endeavor. It requires the collective efforts of all citizens, united in purpose and determined to build a better future.

May this day serve as a reminder of our shared values and aspirations as a nation. Let us unite, transcending ethnic, religious, and political divides, and work together towards a future built on the principles of justice, fairness, and equal opportunities for all.”

Happy Democracy Day, Nigeria!
