It is with esteemed honour that I felicitate with the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria,
His Excellency Bola Ahmed Tinubu GCF and indeed all Nigerians on this auspicious occasion of our nation’s Independence Day celebration dated 1st October 2025.
2. This celebration always calls to our minds the sacrifices, visions, and aspirations of our heroic leaders who played a prominent role in shaping the trajectory of Nigeria’s journey towards independence and national development. It also inspires our reflections on the milestones achieved and the challenges that confront our nationhood.
3. The coming on board of the Renewed Hope administration of our dear President has provided a turning point to the wheels of the developmental progress of our nation. Mr. President is changing the developmental trajectory of our nation through his Renewed Hope Agenda designed to turn our challenges into opportunities and our diversities into prosperity.
4. Today, the benefits are manifest. He has returned our country to the part of glory through massive investment in the critical infrastructure across the 6 geopolitical zones and through other social economic interventions that now stimulate progressive and sustainable economic growth.
5. In the works sector, a lot has been done by Mr. President to address the burden of inherited road infrastructural deficits across Nigeria. The four Renewed Hope legacy projects are a part of measures to expand the frontiers of the economic ecosystems and stimulate the geometric growth of our nation’s GDP and Nigerians are witnesses to the progress he has so far made on road infrastructural development.
6. As we celebrate a new dawn in our journey of nationhood, may the spirit of freedom and unity continue to inspire every Nigerian to strive for a brighter future and may the liberties we cherish inspire us to keep the integrity of our nation. Let’s take a pledge to protect the peace, diversity, harmony, and unity of our great nation. Once again, congratulations to all Nigerians and have a blissful Independence Day celebration.
SEN. ENGR. NWEZE DAVID UMAHI CON
Honourable Minister of Works.
