Speaking at the groundbreaking ceremony of the 3,112 housing units in Renewed Hope City at Karsana, Abuja, on Thursday, the President emphasised the imperativeness of respecting national values, promoting the nation’s ideals, and abiding by its established norms.
“Before I left home this morning, I asked for a printout of the National Pledge, and we have to relaunch it again at this event. The relaunch is about being committed to the values, greatness, and hope of our country. It is our pledge to Nigeria, our country, to be faithful, loyal, and honest. To serve Nigeria with all your strength—we saw it on the field of play yesterday. We were all rejoicing. Everyone of us loves victory. We love to win. When you are positive and hopeful, Nigeria is winning.
