As Nigeria marks Democracy Day, Hon. Nelson Akinsuroju, Member representing Ileoluji/Okeigbo Constituency in the Ondo State House of Assembly, has called on citizens to remain steadfast in upholding the principles of democracy.
In his goodwill message, Akinsuroju commended the resilience and civic spirit of the people of Ileoluji/Okeigbo, noting that democracy thrives only when the people remain actively engaged and committed to its ideals.
“Your voice, your vote, and your participation are the pillars upon which our democracy stands,” he said.
