Osun State House of Assembly under the leadership of its Speaker, Rt. Honourable Najeem Salaam has charged Nigerians to approach the new year with high sense of hope, positive attitude and unshakable faith.
The House also called for fervent prayers for peace, a pre-requisite for development; spirit of sacrifice from the citizenry in view of the myriad of challenges confronting the nation.
The calls were made through a statement issued by the Chairman House Committee on Information and Strategy, Hon. Olatunbosun Oyintiloye, to mark the New Year celebration.
Describing the Year 2016 as one of great expectations, hope, possibilities and challenges, the Assembly said, though the nation is presently at economic crossroads and not yet the nation of our collective dream, it potentially still remained a land of illimitable opportunities and great possibilities.
The parliament said Nigerians of all faith must unite to make Nigeria the global giant of Africa that it was destined to be.
Stressing that Nigeria has every ingredient for greatness, the House maintained that with tenacity of purpose reversal of downturn of fortune was achievable.
He pointed out that the challenges facing the country may be obvious in socio-economic front, there was the need to build confidence in the capacities of the present government to achieve its developmental goals.
