On this day. as I stand before you I offer you a value based leadership anchored on our National Ethics as outlined in Chapter 2 of Section 23 of our Constitution and I quote:
“The National Ethics shall be Discipline, Integrity, Dignity of Labour, Social Justice, Religious Tolerance. Self-reliance and Patriotism.”
Second; where citizens are self-assured and self-assertive; where they are confident and competent; where they want to do what is right no matter whose ox is gored. I want to lead a Nigeria where people are educated and exposed beyond the confines of their tribe, religion, linguistic group or place of birth.
