Senate President Godswill Akpabio has said the 10th National Assembly agreed with President Bola Tinubu’s executive arm of the government to return to the old national anthem because they want to rebuild Nigeria.
Akpabio said this while speaking at the ongoing 2024 Annual General Conference of the Nigerian Bar Association (NBA) in Lagos State, where he urged Nigerian lawyers and legal practitioners to embrace their profession as agents of positive change in the country.
The Senate President said, “We are diligently working hard to create a robust legal framework that will support the aspirations of all Nigerians. We believe strongly that there is no stain in our country that we cannot erase if we stand together in brotherhood. That is why we went back to that National Anthem, that though tribes and tongues may differ, though professions may differ, in brotherhood we stand.
We went back because we want to rebuild the future of this country; remembering that we may come from different tribes, different backgrounds, different ethnic groups, different tongues, but in brotherhood we stand.”
He said, “I entered politics with a dream of my own, and coincidentally, one that aligns with our shared aspirations, to rebuild my state and to rebuild our nation.
“With that dream, I rebuilt Akwa Ibom State. My people can testify, and that was what Nigerians came to know as an uncommon transformation. Together with President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, we can rebuild Nigeria. This is the formula: if our dream should ignite a tiny spark of aspiration amongst those gathered here, it will mark a pivotal moment for Nigeria, and the Renewed Hope programme will definitely be a success.” CONTINUE READING………………………….
