He stressed that the level of rot in the country requires all Nigerians to rise and join in rescuing the nation from further deterioration.

“This is no time to apportion blames or to hunt for culprits. It is the hour of collective responsibility for national salvation.
“I dedicate this award to every Nigerian, who not only believes in good governance, but is making sacrifices to ensure that we get it right in our nation.
“I assure us all that our labours for the New Nigeria will not be in vain because it is a land of POssibilities, a place of prosperity, peace and happiness for all our people. -PO,” he said.
