The Executive Chairman of Akinyele Local Government, Hon. Akinwole Akinleye, has felicitated with Nigerians on the occasion of the nation’s 66th Independence Anniversary, calling for renewed patriotism, unity and collective commitment towards resetting and building a better Nigeria.
In a goodwill message made available through his Chief Media Aide, Ogundipe Miracle, the Executive Chairman congratulated Nigerians at home and abroad and urged citizens to remain hopeful about the future of the country.

According to him, the Nigeria of the future must be a nation where unity triumphs over division, merit is rewarded, young people have opportunities to fulfil their potential, businesses thrive, education is accessible, and every citizen enjoys a strong sense of belonging. He stressed that building such a nation requires the commitment and contribution of everyone, irrespective of political, ethnic, religious or social differences.
The Executive Chairman said: “On behalf of my family and the good people of Akinyele Local Government, I rejoice with all Nigerians on this 66th Independence Anniversary. We must continue to believe in Nigeria and work together to overcome our challenges. With unity of purpose, responsible leadership and active citizenship, we can build the Nigeria of our dreams. Let us put Nigeria first and remain committed to peace, progress and prosperity.”
