Nigeria@64: A nation on verge of redefinition – Senator Apkoti
Senator representing Kogi Central Senatorial District, Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan has said Nigeria is on the threshold of transformation, noting the high cost of living, looming protests and the highjack of the electoral process remain indices for evolution.
In a statement she made available to DAILY POST on Tuesday in Abuja, the lawmaker said the challenges Nigerians face today will catalyse them to their transformation.
Her words, “As I reflect on Nigeria’s 64th independence anniversary, I realise that our nation is poised at the threshold of profound transformation.
“The current socio-political landscape is marked by escalating costs of living, looming protests, and electoral processes hijacked by vested interests. These challenges have become catalysts for a far-reaching sociopolitical evolution.
She expressed the belief that Nigeria is waxing stronger, despite challenges of inflation, stagnant wages, and economic hardship which she said has reached. Boiling point.
“We are struggling to make ends meet as inflation and stagnant wages erode our purchasing power. The economic struggles have reached a boiling point, with devastating consequences on our standard of living.
“The prices of basic commodities have skyrocketed, making it difficult for average Nigerians to afford necessities.”
She said the protest was a way to express frustration that should attract attention, adding that the voices of Nigerians are growing daily demanding the attention of those in power.
“As we grapple with economic hardship, protests have become our powerful tool to express frustration. Our voices are growing louder, demanding attention from those in power.
“The protests are a cry for help, a call to action, and a demand for change.”
She further maintained that the electoral process has been rocked by corruption and manipulation, thereby endangering democracy which was attained at cost.
“This undermines democracy, leaving us feeling disenfranchised and disillusioned. The hijacking of electoral processes threatens the very foundations of our democracy.
“As we navigate these challenges, a sociopolitical evolution unfolds. We demand greater accountability, transparency, and inclusivity.
“We are seeking a new Nigeria, built on the principles of justice, equality, and fairness.
“As we celebrate our 64th anniversary, we stand at a crossroads.
“Will we continue down stagnation’s path or seize this moment to redefine our future? The choice is clear: we must evolve.”
