As Nigeria marks its 65th Independence anniversary, Senator Ede Dafinone, representing Delta Central Senatorial District, has called on Nigerians to remain steadfast in hope and resilient in the face of current challenges.
In a goodwill message to the people of Delta Central, the Niger Delta, and the nation at large, the lawmaker described the anniversary as both a celebration of sovereignty and a time for sober reflection on the country’s journey through struggles, triumphs, and enduring unity.
“From the industrious communities of Delta Central to every part of our great country, this is a moment to reaffirm our commitment to the Nigerian dream — one built on resilience, justice, and shared prosperity,” Dafinone said.
Acknowledging the economic difficulties confronting households and businesses due to inflation, reforms, and global pressures, the senator urged citizens not to be disheartened, stressing that meaningful change often requires sacrifice.
“As we celebrate our independence, let us rekindle our hope and strengthen our resolve to build a Nigeria that works for all,” he added, reaffirming his commitment to advancing the interests of Delta Central in the Senate.
He prayed for renewed love for Nigeria and collective determination to ensure its success, concluding with blessings for Delta Central, Delta State, and the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
