He said: “As we celebrate Nigeria’s 60th independence anniversary, all hands must be on deck to actualise the dreams of Nigeria’s founding fathers, anchored on probity, transparency and accountability.
“It is the responsibility of the government and the citizens to promote and sustain democratic virtues in a bid to achieve good governance and sustainable development. “By adopting global best practices in all our endeavours, Nigeria will reclaim its rightful position in the comity of nations.
“The Federal Government under President Muhammadu Buhari has been implementing pro-poor and youth friendly initiatives aimed at advancing the cause of the youth. “The younger generation must be fully integrated in the national agenda for Nigeria to attain its desired heights.”
