October 1: gives Tinubu and the governors a firm message
President Bola Tinubu, state governors, and other national political heavyweights have received a stern warning from former president Goodluck Jonathan.
In a statement released on his verified X handle on Thursday to commemorate Nigeria’s 66th anniversary of independence, Jonathan urged Nigerian leaders to take full responsibility and show greater patriotism.
He believes that Nigeria’s leadership needs to step up if the country is to realise its promising potential.
“We must prioritise personal sacrifice, effective governance, accountability, and rigorous adherence to the rule of law in order to address our urgent social and economic concerns.
The former Nigerian leader also exhorted young people and other citizens to hold onto optimism, exhibit bravery, and strive faithfully toward a better nation that ensures future generations will live rich lives.
