 Governor of Rivers State, G.S.M. Wieke says that Nigeria as a nation has performed a bit smiling for 61 years and it's time to quickly master measures to rescue it from the wrong direction. The governor gave the charge at the March 1st and Parade event in commemoration of the 61st independence of Nigeria that held at Sharks Football Stadium in Portocaut. Governor Wieke recalled the good old days. Nigeria's independence was chartered by patriotic, knowledgeable and compassionate leaders whose vision was to build a united, peaceful and prosperous black nation. He believes that if subsequent leaders had continued on that path, the nation would have actualized most of its dreams and indeed the country would have become the leader of Africa. Governor Wieke remarked that the nation's democracy is weakened with constant violation of the constitution and other institutions. The National Assembly has abandoned its check and balance rules over the executive, while the judiciary has lost its courage, integrity and commitment to justice. The effect of this is to safeguard the progress and work in a future generation of Nigerians with billions of debts budding in her currencies. Above all, we must defend the basic structures of democracy and good governance by rushing out to protect our rights to free, fair and credible relations by demanding for the immediate incorporation of electronic voting as a maternal transmission of resource international system.
