HAPPY 66TH INDEPENDENCE ANNIVERSARY, NIGERIA...... Adewinmbi
HAPPY 66TH INDEPENDENCE ANNIVERSARY, NIGERIA On this historic occasion, I warmly congratulate Nigerians at home and in the Diaspora as our great nation celebrates 66 years of independence. On 1st October 1960, Nigeria became an independent nation, beginning a remarkable journey marked by triumphs, challenges, sacrifices, resilience and progress. From the First Republic through the Civil War, military and democratic eras, Nigeria has continued to evolve, demonstrating the enduring strength and resilience of her people. As a retired military officer, I particularly honour the gallant men and women of our Armed Forces and security agencies, past and present, who have sacrificed and continue to sacrifice for the unity, sovereignty and security of our nation. I remember with gratitude our fallen heroes and heroines who paid the ultimate price for Nigeria. At 66, our greatest responsibility is to build on the sacrifices of the past and create a better future....
