An erstwhile Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) governorship aspirant in Osun State, Omooba Dotun Babayemi, has implored Nigerians to direct their energies towards ensuring that the country becomes one of the best in the world.
Babayemi who admitted that the nation is currently faced with many challenges, maintained that the problems could be surmounted with the right attitudes and dedication from everyone.
In a statement issued by his Media Office to commemorate Nigeria’s 63rd independence anniversary, he averred that the country could always be at the front row among other countries if the populace could rally around the government to bring to bear, its lofty dreams.
The party leader advised further that the blame game which has become a common thing among the people, especially the elites, must be done away with.
“It’s high time we refocused our energies as a people and country and stop our common refrain of blame game if our country, Nigeria, is to occupy its right pride of place among the comity of nations,” he said.
Babayemi noted that the age of independence of the country must be made to reflect its growth, saying, “Everyone has a role to play to make Nigeria great. No contributions in this direction can be too small for we are all stakeholders in this project called Nigeria,” Babayemi added.
