Dear Learned Colleagues,
Notwithstanding the myriad of challenges confronting us as a nation and our present-day
experience, we cannot afford to give up on the Nigeria of our dream – a Nigeria where we all
live in peace and harmony, with tremendous economic growth under a stable and purposeful
leadership.
We must, therefore, introspect, retune our thinking deliberately and, recalibrate our steps and
actions. We must redirect our minds by focusing on the positive – our strengths and
achievements – and build on them towards achieving a just and prosperous society. We must
refuse to be overwhelmed by our negative experiences but contribute from our individual
corners towards realizing the fullness of our immense potential, which makes Nigeria the
great nation that it is. We must move Nigeria from a great nation potentially, to a great nation
experientially.
We must rise above all prejudices, de-emphasise the things that separate us and embrace the
things that unite us. This is only possible when we allow our humanity and the love of God in
our hearts to find expression, as we relate with each other as a people. This must be our
mindset and posture as we work and keep hope alive. As members of the legal profession, we
must always remember that our primary call is, to live for the direction of our people and the
advancement of the cause of our dear nation Nigeria. We are blessed with great human
resource populated by vibrant, brilliant, energetic, innovative, and resourceful youth. We
must together, champion the recovery, reformation, and repositioning of Nigeria. A NEW
NIGERIA IS POSSIBLE.
It is on this note that I wish all Nigerians a wonderful 63rd Independence Day Anniversary.
Long live the Federal Republic of Nigeria!
God bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria!!
