This evening, I joined David Greene, Chargé d'Affaires Ad Interim, Consul General Will Stevens, Embassy staff, U.S. citizens and friends of the United States at a reception to celebrate the 247th Independence Anniversary and birthday of the United States of America.

I salute the government and citizens of the United States of America, as they honour their history, heritage and perhaps, their most cherished national holidays. Although vastly different in age and size as democracies, the U.S. and Nigeria share certain commonalities in terms of democratic aspirations, democratic principles, and diversity.

More fundamentally, the U.S. offers Nigeria an unfettered template of good governance modalities for a Republican nation governed not by whims of rulers, but by precepts and a creed of freedom and democracy governed by the rule of law, strong institutions and the common vision of nations governed by Constitutions founded on the will of their citizens. As a people we Nigerians cherish the beauty of America as the hallmark of freedom and democracy.

We admire the beauty of America’s diversity and it’s exemplary will to be the master of its destiny. I wish the United States a happy 247th Anniversary. -PO

The great man who single handedly destroyed the agbado rodents and their cocaine sniffing thief. The man that won 2023 presidential election but was robbed by Mahmoud, tinubu and Buhari.

By the grace of God we are in court. Obi is coming

America cannot afford to fail because she is a constant reminder that millions of people from different races can come together and build a progressive country. But for tribalism, ignorance and religious fanaticism, Peter Obi could have built our own America.
