All Progressives Congress, APC says as as party in government, its commitment to address the nation’s current challenges which find expression in the economy and security, remain unshaken.
APC also urged all Nigerians to continue to pray and support the current administration’s effort to build a peaceful and greater nation.
Bolaji Abdullahi, APC National Publicity Secretary stated this in the party’s congratulatory message to Nigerians as the country marked the 2018 democracy day celebration.
Abdullahi reminded Nigerians that, President Muhammadu Buhari administration has continued in the country’s proud tradition of being a bastion of democracy in the sub-region and across the world, as seen in its lead intervention in ensuring representative governance and peaceful transition of power in the Gambia.
” Indeed, our journey as a nation since 1999 when we returned to democratic rule has not been an easy one but our country has soldiered on.
“We have built on the gains of those early years fractured by military incursion and now 19 years after, our democracy and polity are stronger. We have conducted successive elections and have continually improved on the transparency and credibility of our electoral system.
He said on this momentous occasion, Nigerians should congratulate themselves on the strides they have made in their political journey as a country since independence.
” For one, military rule is now distant memory in Nigeria. We must now work collectively to improve our democracy because regardless of its imperfections, democracy remains the best form of government that can best serve the interest of our people”, the APC Spokesman stated.
