June 12: I risked my life for Nigeria’s democracy – Tinubu

President Bola Tinubu said he was among those who took the
risk to midwife the birth of democracy in the country.

 

The president added that he is now a direct and obvious
beneficiary of the fruits of those historic efforts.

 

Tinubu stated this while addressing Nigerians in a
nationwide broadcast as part of programmes to mark the Democracy Day.

 

“As president of this nation, I am morally and
constitutionally bound to preserve this precious form of governance.

 

“Yes, we pay eternal honour to those who laid down their
lives, sacrificing everything to pave the way for the nation.

 

“I stand uniquely placed in this regard. I was among those
who took the risk to midwife the birth of our democracy. I am now a direct and
obvious beneficiary of the fruits of those historic efforts.

 

“As president of this nation, I am morally and
constitutionally bound to preserve this precious form of governance. I vow to
do my utmost best to protect your rights, freedoms, and liberties as citizens
of Nigeria.”
