The Nigeria 65 Project has appealed to citizens across the nation to embrace unity and collective purpose as the country marks its independence anniversary. The organisation emphasised that national progress requires Nigerians to transcend ethnic and religious differences that have historically divided the population.
In a statement released to commemorate the occasion, the group highlighted the importance of fostering a shared national identity. The organisation’s leadership stressed that sustainable development can only occur when citizens work together toward common goals rather than pursuing sectional interests.
The Nigeria 65 Project specifically called for greater inter-ethnic understanding and cooperation at all levels of society. The statement noted that despite the nation’s challenges, its diversity represents a significant strength that should be harnessed for national advancement rather than exploited for political or personal gain.
The organisation’s message comes amid ongoing national conversations about restructuring and national cohesion. The Nigeria 65 Project expressed confidence that through deliberate efforts toward unity, the country can overcome its current challenges and achieve its potential as a leading African nation.
