… _Celebrating Democratic Values and Shared Prosperity as Owerri Municipal SOLAD Sends Democracy Day Message to Residents of Owerri Municipal Council.._

 

On this Democracy Day, we gather to celebrate a system that has proven its worth through the annals of history. Democracy stands as a beacon of liberty, freedom from suppression, flexibility, and independence. It is an unwavering advocate for unity, a path to progress, and a preserver of our ethical, ethnic, and national values.

We owe it to ourselves, our children, and the generations yet to come to uphold and cherish the true essence of democracy. It is our collective responsibility to ensure that the definition, context, and reality of democracy remain untarnished. When the values of truth are ignored, abuse becomes inevitable. Therefore, we must all make a concerted effort, a sacrifice we must render, a clarion call we must answer, and a burden we must bear to stand in solidarity in defense of democracy and all it represents.

I urge every Imolite residing in Owerri Municipal Council to continue supporting the Shared Prosperity vision of Distinguished Senator Hope Uzodimma. This vision has transformed our municipality into an economic hub for growth, and the remarkable infrastructural upliftment we are witnessing deserves our accolades. Let us continue to applaud the Governor’s efforts and enjoy the benefits of these initiatives.

As your humble administrator in service, I once again pledge my irrefutable oath of office to ensure that democracy is upheld and observed in all my duties to you, the people. Together with you, the true purpose of democracy will always find its definition in our nation, state, and municipality.

God bless Nigeria
God bless Imo State
God bless Owerri Municipal Council.

Yours in service,

Hon. Chidiebere Emeribe
Sole Administrator, Owerri Municipal Council

Ahead of the 2027 general election, Governor Dauda Lawal of Zamfara State has said he’s not afraid of any forces in the state.

The governor stated this on Wednesday while fielding questions on Channels TV’s Politics Today programme.

The statement comes amid speculation that he might switch tent to the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) following the intractable crisis in the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

Lawal said based on what they are doing in Zamfara, delivering the good aspect of democracy, he thinks there is no reason for him to fear anybody.

He said: “The truth of the matter is, when I contested in 2023, all these forces were there.

“Remember the first governor of Zamfara State, Sani Yerima, and his deputy, Mahmud Shinkafi, Abdul’aziz Abubakar Yari, and his deputy, then Governor Bello Matawalle and his deputy, and all the senators and members of the National Assembly, they were all in APC when I contested in 2023 and I still won.

“So what difference is it going to make? Now there is nothing really new as far as that is concerned. You see, politics is… we understand the trend, and we are on ground.

“I’m not scared of anybody. God has given me this position, and based on what we are doing, delivering the good aspect of democracy, I think there is no reason for me to fear anybody. It is only God that I fear.

“So what has changed from 2023 to 2027 that you think I will have any doubt or fear of these people? Absolutely no fear as far as that is concerned.

“Like I said, first of all, I am not a desperate politician, and I believe I am a man of principle, and I believe in what I am doing. And for now, in Zamfara State, based on what we are doing, I do not think there is anything to be scared of as far as any forces are concerned.”
