Mr Nyesom Wike, the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) has advised Nigerians to explore the path of dialogue in resolving the country’s numerous challenges.

He said this at a public lecture/special Jummu’a prayer held in Abuja, as part of activities to commemorate Nigeria’s 63rd Independence anniversary.

The Minister, represented by Mr Danlami Ihayyo, the Mandate Secretary, Education Secretariat in the FCT, said Nigeria had been faced with many challenges since independence, saying however, that President Bola Tinubu’s ‘Renewed Hope’ agenda, marked a new beginning for the country.

He said that the 63rd anniversary would serve as a new beginning for the country in line with Tinubu’s agenda.

Wike, who was the guest speaker, underscored the need to key into the agenda to address the nation’s socio-economic challenges.

While describing the topic as apt, the minister said, “It underscores the importance of addressing the socio-economic challenges our nation faces.

“And, hopefully, it would present a new perspective and a renewed hope agenda of President Bola Tinubu.

“Nigeria is still waxing strong in terms of successes recorded across all sectors of the economy, in spite of numerous plights.”

He, however, advised Nigerians to acknowledge the persistent challenges ranging from poverty, unemployment, inadequate infrastructure and insecurity as tools to revitalise the country and to impact on Nigerians positively.
