A former Vice-President of Nigeria and presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party in the 2019 election, Atiku Abubakar, has encouraged Nigerian children never to lose hope in their country, whether or not they live here or in the diaspora.
Atiku, according to a statement by his Media Adviser, Paul Ibe, asked them to note that they are the future of Nigeria as they celebrate the Children’s Day across the country and around the world.
“No matter how tough and trying the situation in the country may appear today, Nigerian children must believe that things can and will get better.
“This conviction will help them see in themselves the solutions to the multiple challenges our country faces. It will strengthen them not to turn their backs on their country at a time when she needs them most, no matter how rosy life may appear in other shores.
“From chess champions to acclaimed artists, Nigerian children have been in the international headlines recently for exceptional achievements despite all odds. These shining lights are just some examples of the potential in you, our children,” the statement added.
