The Governing council chairman of Rufus How’s Polytechnic Owo has extended his hand of Congratulations to the people of ondo on the Thanksgiving service of the judicial victory of Arakunrin Oluwarotimi Odunayo AKEREDOLU.
In his message released to news men,Your Excellency: I congratulate you today as you lead the good people of Ondo State, to a thanksgiving service in Owo, in commemoration of the victories of the good people of Ondo State at the Election Petitions Tribunal, Court of Appeal and the Supreme Court of Nigeria.
I will humbly recommend that the 4th Sunday of the month of August be declared Thanksgiving Day in Ondo State, to be celebrated every year.
Thanksgiving will be a time when the good people of Ondo State should celebrate our resilience as a people , the plentiful yield of our soil . . . the beauty of our land . . . the preservation of those ideals of liberty, freedom and justice that form the basis of our culture as a people, and the hope of peace.” as our country is now named as No3 in the index of the terrorist nations of the world .
We must be resolute in our collective obligation and responsibilities to defend the enduring principles of freedom that form the foundation of our Nation. During these extraordinary times, we find particular assurance from our Thanksgiving of today, which reminds us that we, as a people and individually, always have reason to hope and trust in God, despite the great adversity we have to contend with and to say the least , these adversities we are contending with today are of a sophistication, hitherto, unknown in the history of the south- west and our nation.
The grazing route just created by the Federal government is in my own opinion , a grave error of judgement which may precipitate another round of violence, arson, armed robbery, rape, and kidnapping. I will recommend that the National Assembly and the Governor’s forum adopt ranching, which is a better alternative.
Mr Governor- some crucial hours may lie ahead. In those hours, the success of our cause will depend on you. The year 2023 is around the corner, when we shall call upon you once again for a bigger national service and national assignment.
The hour is close-by, when we shall call on you to make us proud
Your training has prepared you. Your services to the good people of Ondo state will give you the necessary edge and advantage. Your honor will guide you.
We seek peace. We strive for peace. And sometimes peace must be defended. A future lived at the mercy of terrorist, bandits and terrible threats is no peace at all.
The time is close and the year 2023 is fast approaching, when we the good people of Ondo State and the people of our nation shall call on you “ to come to Mesopotamia “ and help
And then it shall be a National Thanksgiving and we shall set every 4th Sunday of August as our National Thanksgiving Day
Happy Thanksgiving Day Your Excellency , Happy thanksgiving Day to the good people of Ondo State . Happy thanksgiving Day Nigeria
