President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s led administration has been been charged by the Accord Party to do everything in order to restore national security, public safety and prosperity in the country.
The party made this known in a statement signed and made available to the newsmen by the National Chairman of the party, Barrister Maxwell Mgbudem.
“The Accord Party urges Nigerians to use the occasion of this 64th Independence anniversary as an opportunity to renew our faith in the fatherland and rededicate ourselves in building a strong, stable, united, progressive, prosperous, equitable and decent democratic society.
“The state of the nation is bad. There is hunger in the land and confusion in governance at all levels.
“We should pray in one accord for divine intervention in our multifarious political, economic and security challenges that have impeded the nation’s democratic process.
“It is time to take governance seriously bearing in mind that the security and welfare of the people are the primary purpose of government as enshrined in Section 14(2)b of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria 1999, as amended.
“Nigerians desire and deserve dividends of democracy to assuage their sufferings.
“Accord urges governments at all levels to take immediate steps to tackle the perennial economic hardship and insecurity in the country.
“They should think out of the box and restore national security, public safety and prosperity. The country is blessed with abundant human and natural resources, it is time to reassess our priorities as a nation, get rid of incompetent leaders, fight corruption, restore national security and make Nigeria great again. This is the only way that the labour of our heroes past shall not be in vain.”
