As the nation celebrates Democracy Day, Dr. Raymond Edoh, an advocate for democratic values and youth inclusiveness, has applauded the efforts of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu in fostering a democratic environment that encourages growth, unity, and prosperity in Nigeria.

Dr. Edoh stated this on Thursday in a statement to mark Democracy Day.

“It is a day to reflect on our journey towards a better society and to galvanise our efforts towards building an inclusive nation where every citizen can thrive”.

Dr. Edoh noted “President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s leadership signifies a commitment to democratic principles and economic revitalisation. His policies aimed at stimulating growth and encouraging investment are crucial for the development of our dear nation. We the youth, who make up a significant chunk of our population, have a pivotal role to play in this transformative journey.”

“As Nigeria grapples with numerous challenges, including economic instability, Dr. Edoh encourages the youth to take ownership of their future. He believes that their involvement in political processes and their commitment to entrepreneurial ventures can significantly contribute to the country’s development.

“According to a recent report by the National Bureau of Statistics,

“Nigeria’s economy is projected to grow by 3.3%, indicating a positive trend despite global economic challenges.

“We the youth must recognise that our hard work and dedication can drive this growth. By creating businesses, engaging in community development, and being politically active, they can contribute immensely to the economy,” Dr. Edoh adds.

With the youth playing an integral role in shaping the political landscape, Dr. Edoh urged them to participate actively in political processes.

“It is imperative for we the young Nigerians to vote, advocate for policies that benefit us instead of complaining and protesting, and hold leaders accountable through legal and official approaches. Our voice matters, and our vote is our power,” he emphasises.

In his message, Dr. Edoh called for unity among Nigerians, regardless of their ethnic, religious, or political affiliations. “For Nigeria to achieve its full potential, we must embrace our diversity and work together for the common good. This involves recognising and celebrating our differences while striving towards our shared goals,” he states.

“President Tinubu’s administration has taken steps towards fostering national unity, exemplified by policies aimed at inclusivity. The achieved balance between regional development and political representation is crucial for a harmonious society. According to a report by the Centre for Democracy and Development, national cohesion is fundamental for preventing conflict and promoting economic stability.”
