The Speaker of the Lagos State House of Assembly, Mudashiru Obasa, has described Nigeria as a country on the path to greatness just as he urged the citizens to play active roles for this to be fully achieved. According to the Speaker, Nigeria had, since 1999, experienced what could best be described as the teething stage of its democratic journey with the need for unity taking the centre-stage of public discourse. “The new story that we all anticipate, envisage and dream about for our country is achievable and right before us. All that is required is our collective resolve to be part of progress,” Obasa said. “We are honoured to be the current bearers of the baton of democracy and we look forward to upholding the labour of these heroes.”
