Most Distinguished Senator Peter Nwaoboshi has through his media aide extended his heart felt good wishes to all Nigerians in the New Year. He also urge them to pray for a full recovery of the economy in 2025.
As we enter 2025, I wish Nigerians all around the world a Happy New Year. I thank the Almighty for guiding and sustaining our collective journey thus far, and for keeping us ever-strong and focused as a nation of diverse ethnicities, but united hearts.
No doubt, 2024 has been a year of heightened activity in the individual, social, economic and political lives of Nigerians. We have witnessed our nation struggle through tough times due to our security challenges; in our homes we have struggled through the economic realities that have become so pervasive; Yet, despite all of this, my fellow Nigerians, you must know: with your help, things are about to get better.
As we come into 2025, we come into a year of endless possibilities. We must view the faults of the past as foregone days of lessons that we have learned from, and see the future as a chance to attain greatness.
In this new year, we must set ourselves to the task of moving forward with the goal of creating a New Nigeria that our sons and daughters can be proud of; a Nigeria that works for the betterment of the many, as opposed to working for the greed and excesses of the few.
As we celebrate this new year, we must also remember our service men and women on the frontlines who fight for us; who fight to keep us all safe. We must remember our internally displaced countrymen and women, who have had to flee their homes in search of security that could not be found at home.
As we remember all these things, we must know that at the end of the day, in this new year we have in us an unprecedented opportunity to alter the course of this nation. We must see ourselves as history-makers and change agents as we work to bring about a New Nigeria for all Nigerians. He wished Nigerians a happy and blessed 2025.
Once again, Happy New Year!
Most Distinguished Senator Peter Onyelukachukwu Nwaoboshi (SPON)
