Nigeria @60: Southern YOWICAN Chairman Charges Nigerians To Always Think Nigeria First, Contribute Their Quota For a Better Society

By Samuel Ukwu.

Nigerians are charged to always be their brothers keepers as well as exhibit acts of patriotism in all their dealings with one another across the country and in diaspora even as the country celebrates 60 years Independence Anniversary and peaceful coexistence over the years.

The Chairman of Southern Youth Wing of Christian Association of Nigeria, YOWICAN, Barr. Green Nnabugwu made the call during a press conference of the Christian organization held in Owerri, Imo State capital on Thursday, October 1, 2020 to mark the nation’s independence.

According to him, “‘The Nigerian Project’ is fundamentally a daily patriotic call on all Nigerians to take responsibility (no matter how small) in making the Nigeria of today better than the Nigerian of yesterday. It is a lifelong national goal of moving Nigeria ever forward by Nigerians themselves”

“Seeing our great nation and fatherland Nigeria-turn 60 today’s is a thing of joy for us and we believe it is the same with many other fellow Nigerians both at home and in diaspora”

The Christian youth leader who decried the high rate of unemployment, poverty, killings among other disturbing stories, added that “The government of Nigeria should develop a policy of supporting indigenous firm such as Innoson Car Manufacturing Company, as such will enable them absorb the millions of unemployed youths in the streets as well as reduce the burden from the federal government”

Barr. Nnabugwu while speaking on the theme ‘Rethinking the Nigeria

Project’ emphasized shared passion and mission for ever growing and transforming Nigeria to include total commitment and dedication to duties and obligations.

“The Nigerian Project’ is simply our collective dreams, aspirations and
vision of a better Nigerian society irrespective of our cultural, tribal, religious, political, ideological, class, age and gender differences”

“It is an unstoppable cause that demands avowed commitment from every Nigerian towards securing a better future for NIGERIA”

The YOWICAN Chairman urged Nigerians as well as Christaian faithfuls to always keep hope alive for a better Nigerian society noting that things would fall in place despite all odds.

“The Nigerian Project touches on every aspect of our national life and
relies both on the government and the governed to thrive”

“‘The Nigerian Project’ is timeless and ageless. It is not initiated by or tie
to, or stop with any political era/regime, as it thrives on and lives on
with every generation of Nigerians (be it the past, present or the
future). In fact, every Nigerian is born with ‘The Nigerian Project'”

The YOWICAN Leader added that “‘The Nigerian Project’ can hardly make remarkable progress if both as a people and a government doesn’t rethink, ‘The Nigerian Project’ and be able to see it correctly as what it is and execute it” while recommending that “Nigerians need to courageously make mental, attitudinal, policy and structural shift on how we address some key national issues like Unity and Peaceful coexistence, Security and Law, enforcement, Corruption, Youth and Unemployment among others.”
