The Allied Conservative Congress (ACC) has called on federal government to take governance seriously and act fast to revive the economy and restore national security.
National Chairman ACC, Rev. Olusegun Peters in a press statement to celebrate Nigeria’s 64th Independence Day said s Nigerians are fed up with excuses by elected public officers on why they cannot deliver dividends of democracy and usher in a new era of prosperity.
He said it is time to hold governments at all levels accountable as obtainable in advanced democracies.
“A country blessed with much human and natural resources cannot be impoverished by self-seeking politicians and their cronies.
“I join millions of Nigerians to celebrate the nation’s 64th Independence anniversary. God has been gracious to us, it is by His mercy that the country remains united despite political upheavals, economic stagnation, socio-religious disharmony and insecurity. Notwithstanding, there is hope of a brighter future.
“ACC is optimistic that the difficulties of today will be a testimony of God’s faithfulness tomorrow. We should remain prayerful, tolerant and patriotic.
“Nigeria’s 64th Independence is yet another opportunity to do serious soul-searching and renew our faith in the fatherland. The challenges are enormous and so are the opportunities if we collectively resolve to build a prosperous democratic nation with conservative ideology.
“It is obvious that there is hardship and hunger in the land, compounded by insecurity. The Federal Government should take governance seriously and act fast to revive the economy and restore national security.
“Nigerians are fed up with excuses by elected public officers on why they cannot deliver dividends of democracy and usher in a new era of prosperity.
“It is time to hold governments at all levels accountable as obtainable in advanced democracies. A country blessed with much human and natural resources cannot be impoverished by self-seeking politicians and their cronies.
“It is time for well meaning Nigerians to stand up and be counted in the quest for a new, better and greater Nigeria.
“ACC will continue to champion good governance and the enthronement of genuine democracy with conservative ideology. It is the panacea to the nation’s perennial economic, political and security challenges,” he said .
