This comes right after he said that if the current generation takes advantage of the year's tremendous opportunity, stories of historic events that will take place in it will be passed down to future generations.
In a message for the new year from his media assistant, Kola Popoola, Peller, the Accord party's senatorial candidate for Oyo North, said it is the civic duty of every patriotic Nigerian to make 2023 count by electing capable, patriotic, selfless, and creative leaders across political parties that will ensure a functional system for Nigeria.
He emphasised further that Nigeria is undoubtedly meant to be great because of the abundance of natural and human capital resources at its disposal, but that Nigerians just need to make the resources count.
According to him, “The year 2023 presents a golden opportunity for our dear nation. It will be a year of breakthroughs for Nigeria. As we head to the polls in the coming months, it is our civic responsibility to make 2023 count by electing competent, patriotic, selfless, and innovative leaders across political parties that can deliver a functional system – contributing their quota to a better Nigeria.
“I believe that destiny, opportunity, and time are inextricably linked together. And 2023 presents to us a great opportunity to vote for public officers that can identify with the plight of the people – as the outcome of the polls would determine our collective future.
“With numerous natural and human capital resources available to us, it is not debatable that Nigeria is destined to be great; we only need to make it happen. We mustn’t fail to take advantage of this golden opportunity to vote right because if we get it wrong the unborn generations won’t be happy with us.
“It is my greatest hope that we have transparent and credible polls that would reflect the true wishes of Nigerians.”
