 June 12: President Bola Ahmed Tinubu Fought For The Democracy We Enjoy Today - Dr Betta Edu

On this auspicious occasion of Nigeria's Democracy Day and celebration of 25 years of unbroken Democracy, I join millions of Nigerians to heartily felicitate with Mr President on the milestone achieved in pursuit of a democratic, egalitarian and free society in Nigeria.

There is no doubt that you are an unwavering soldier of Democracy who has been in the vanguard of securing a just, equitable and fair country and a better future for all.

History has recorded our Contributions as Progressives, from NADECO days that gave birth to the fourth Republic, When you joined to form the  Alliance For Democracy (AD), Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN), then to your immeasurable contribution that led to the formation of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and now as President and Commander in Chief of the Federal Republic of Nigeria to practice true Democracy for the good of our dear nation. There is no doubt that you have laboured and sacrificed for Democracy and its enthronement in our nation.

No wonder Nigerians rewarded your sacrifices with their massive mandate which they collectively gave to you at the polls.

Mr President Sir, It is heartwarming that you have justified this confidence and mandate through the Renewed Hope policy of your administration which among other things aims to extricate millions of vulnerable Nigerians out of poverty.

Your Excellency, I warmly congratulate you on this epochal occasion of Democracy Day and wish you many more years of service to our fatherland.

On your Mandate, I Stand, Sir.

Signed

Dr Betta Edu,

Hon. Minister for Humanitarian Affairs and Poverty Alleviation.
