READ: GOODWILL MESSAGE FROM CENTER FOR PEACE AND ENVIRONMENTAL JUSTICE (CEPEJ) ON NIGERIA INDEPENDENCE DAY

My fellow Nigerians,

It is with great joy that i send this congratulatory message to you all on this auspicious day as important to our country Nigeria.

Today is the beginning of a new month and new dawn in our various lives and our 59th Independence Anniversary day, the day our founding fathers fought and freed us from the shackles of colonial rule exactly 59 years ago.

Our nation's journey has been enveloped with various episodes,scenes and trials which culminated into the Nigerian spirit of perseverance, courage,selflessness and the dream of a greater Nigeria irrespective of the insecurity, economic, religious,political and ethnic challenges faced by citizens today .

The vision of our founding fathers built on love, freedom and justice was destroyed by the mindless military entrance into our polity which led us into the wilderness of corruption,hatred and selfishness.

As we all stand united with one voice clamouring for a greater, brighter and prosperous Nigeria,all hands must be on deck to bring back the lost glory of our country.

There is no doubt that we have all come a long way in this project called NIGERIA, but as a great and strong nation, we should plan to position our country to greater heights.

As we all celebrate our 59 years of nationhood today, I want all our leaders to reflect back and do an appraisal by focusing on what will make our country the giant of Africa again.

Today CEPEJ is informing all Nigerians to build our nation and it is a collective effort which requires the collective will and mindset of all to achieve.

we all need to see ourselves as one Nigeria, we all need to let go of our culture of mediocrity and corruption which has held us backwards from developing our society and potentials of emerging as a great nation before other international world.

Nigeria is a great nation, we have strong and hard working people who can survive all over the world, we are courageous, we are bold and beautiful, we are blessed with minerals resources such as crude oil, gold, limestone among others.

My fellow Nigerians, it is time for us as a nation to sing a song of victory and chart a new beginning that will lead us into prosperity and advancement in all spheres of human endeavors having being immensely blessed by God with rich human and natural assets which makes us the envy of all African nations and the globe at large.

CEPEJ believes a bright future awaits us as a country Nigeria and urges all to remain resolute and committed in the Nigerian project that can bring about development to the doorstep of all citizens.

Though we have passed through various challenges as a nation in security, educationally and financially, we must strive to succeed!

The Center for Peace and Environmental Justice, still believes confidently that the sky is indeed bright for us as a nation.

Please, accept my congratulations of our 59 years of nationhood.

God Bless Nigeria!

National Coordinator
