“For me, the question is not whether Nigerians want to vote; the registration numbers prove they do. The question is whether they believe their votes matter. And until we can answer that question affirmatively and citizens can see a clear line between their ballot and a better life, the silence at the polls will only grow louder.” ~ Olusegun Adeniyi #ThePlatformNG

“The fundamental problem that we have is that there are people willing to manufacture progress irrespective of the ethical base, the ideological base, or the moral base upon which the progress is constructed.” ~ Dr. Brian Kagoro #ThePlatformNigeria

“In turning this country around, we need to go back to the fundamentals of saying ‘How do we have the right kind of people in government?’” ~ Dr. Bukola Saraki (CON) #ThePlatformNG

“Are we a nation or are we a country?” ~ Babatunde Raji Fashola (CON, SAN) #ThePlatformNG

"Merit matters, but merit requires a framework. Vision matters, but every vision requires a system." ~ Dr Brian Kagoro #ThePlatformNG

Lessons on cordiality and nation-building from @Olusegunverdict at the #ThePlatformNG June 12 Special Edition.

“Consensus does not disable opposition. On the contrary, it sharpens the alternatives that they represent.” ~ Babatunde Raji Fashola CON SAN #ThePlatformNG

5/ "Democracy is more than a political system. Democracy is a promise. A promise of opportunity, participation and hope, hope for the future." ~ Gen. Christopher Gwabin Musa (Rtd)

4/ "The generation that fought for June 12 secured democracy. The responsibility of our generation is to secure it, strengthen it and pass it on stronger than we received it, which means there is work to be done." We got it. We received it, secured it, and strengthened it. That’s the essence of democracy in one sentence.

Gen. Christopher Gwabin Musa (Rtd) on citizens, security, and what this generation owes democracy. #ThePlatformNG #DemocracyDay #June12 #Governance
