As Nigerians celebrate Democracy Day, the Senator representing Delta North, Hon. Ned Munir Nwoko, has extended goodwill message to all.
Nwoko in his felicitation message, described Democracy as more than just a system of governance.
He said “it is the embodiment of our collective aspirations for freedom, equality, and justice”.
“To fully embrace and celebrate democracy, we must confront the challenges that hinder its full realization”.
According to him, our electoral process needs to be seamless and transparent, free from the pervasive influence of godfatherism and the blight of nepotism.
Democracy, he said thrives on the active participation and engagement of its citizens. It requires a collective commitment to uphold justice, fairness, and equality.
“As we honor the legacy of those who fought for our democratic freedoms, let us also recognize our responsibility to address these systemic issues”.
Happy Democracy Day with determination and hope, he concluded.
