Hon. Dr Baffa Dandatti (Maliyan Gwale) congratulates Nigerians on the occasion of the 61st Independence Day celebrations.


Maliyan Gwale said "On this special day here’s wishing our dreams of a new tomorrow come true. May your Independence day be filled with patriotic spirit. Ask not what your country can do for you. Ask what you can do for your country. We must remain one."


He added that "I will always be a true and loyal citizen of this country. I will love my country and make it a better place to live in. No nation is perfect, it needs to be made perfect. Contribute towards the perfection of your Nation-state."
