Calls for unity, reform, and hope amid economic and social challenges as Nigeria marks 65 years.
As Nigeria celebrates its 65th Independence Day, voices from Anambra, Enugu, and Ebonyi reflect a nation at crossroads. Anambra lawyer Stanley Okafor urges a “Revolution of Conduct” against breakdowns in democracy and justice, lamenting distrust in institutions. Professor Chris Abakare of Nnamdi Azikiwe University highlights urgent education reforms to halt decline and prevent brain drain. Enugu’s Chinedu Nwonu sees an economy stabilizing under President Tinubu but warns insecurity and energy woes threaten growth. Enugu’s Progressives leader Ben Nwoye praises the “Renewed Hope Agenda” for steady progress. Meanwhile, lawyer Nnamdi Ezemagu calls for genuine separation of powers, and Ebonyi stakeholders stress economic resilience but demand more reforms. National pride blends with calls for collective action toward a stronger Nigeria.
