Senate President Ahmad Lawan says with the right support
from citizens, Nigeria can overcome its present challenges and become better.
Lawan stated this on Thursday in his Easter message to
Nigerians.
He noted that building a great nation requires sacrifice and
endurance, adding that citizens need to support the government in driving
economic growth.
The senate president asked Nigerians “to use the occasion to
preach religious tolerance, love for our neighbours and commit to our civic
responsibilities”.
“Building a great nation requires sacrifice, endurance and
hope. This is especially true in our own case where diversity in tongues and
faiths make the task complex,” he said.
“But with abiding hope in our manifest destiny of greatness,
I believe we shall overcome the challenges and build the Nigeria of our dream.
“Let us also continue to support the government in its
efforts to provide security and an enabling environment for economic growth and
prosperity.
“The National Assembly will continue to work for the
Nigerian people in this regard and in their legitimate pursuit of peace,
happiness and prosperity in their beloved country.”
Lawan said the national assembly will continue to make laws
that support the growth of the country.
“Our various committees are currently working on the various
proposals for amendment of the 1999 Constitution and the Electoral Reforms
Act,, to mention just a few, as well as the Petroleum Industry Bill,” he added.
