Governor Caleb Muftwang of Plateau State has admonished Nigerians to continue to have faith in the country and cooperate with those in the authorities to move the nation forward.
The governor gave the admonition on Monday during the 63rd National Day Celebration at the Rwang Pam Stadium in Jos.
He said no matter the condition of the country at the moment, the situation can still be better with dedication on the part of the government and the citizenry.
“Despite the odds we face as a nation, we can summon all of them and make Nigeria rise to glory again. So on this auspicious occasion, I would like to congratulate all of us. I urge us to continue to have faith in our country. We have no country to call our own except Nigeria.
“No matter how things are spoiled, when there is a will, there is a way, and together, we can join hands to rebuild this nation. I want to thank all the military formations and paramilitary agencies for the contributions you are making daily and the sacrifices you’re making daily to ensure that the people of Plateau live in peace, and by the grace of God, Plateau shall know peace. Your efforts will not go in vain.
“I therefore want to pray that we will find the strength to rise to the challenges that confront us as a people. and together, I am sure, by the grace of God, we will become victorious,” he prayed.
The governor acknowledged the doggedness of school children who defied the heavy rain and marched around the stadium, where he took the salute.
State Commissioner of Information and Communication, Mr. Musa Ashom, commended the Governor for being the engine behind the chain of successes that the young administration has so far recorded.
