SANWO-OLU ASKED NIGERIAN TO BE MORE PATRIOTIC
Lagos state governor stated his mind on patriotism on armed forces Remembrance Day
Lagos State Governor, Mr Babajide Sanwo-Olu has urged Nigerians to stop criticising the country but contribute their quota to build the nation.
Sanwo-Olu said this during the special Jumat Service for the year 2022 Armed Forces Remembrance Day Celebration, at the Community Central Mosque, Ikeja.
The Governor, who was represented by his Deputy, Dr Obafemi Hamzat, said that Nigerians had formed the habit of criticising the nation, and even the Armed Forces, but also contributed to wrongdoings.
”All we do is criticise. We even criticise the Nigerian Army, that they are not fighting well. We always elevate the bad things about our country,” he said.
According to him, other countries have their challenges, but never portray such to the world.
Sanwo-Olu said that God had given everyone his uniqueness, hence, such uniqueness should be used to build the country.
”How do we justify the death of those people that fought for this country to remain? In memory of the people that have even died, let us even be nice to our country.
”Whether we like it or not, if we do not build it, all of us will suffer. It is as simple as that.
