The Senate has expressed optimism that Nigeria is on the right track to attain its full potential as it prepares to celebrate its 63rd Independence.

Chairman of the Senate Committee on Media and Public Affairs, Senator YEMI ADARAMODU said this in a pre-Independence interview, held in his office.

According to him, Senators are of the view that although the nation has passed through and is still passing through some challenges, the journey to nationhood “has been so far so good.”

The Senate noted that since becoming self-governing 63 years ago, Nigerians have a lot to be grateful for especially the togetherness among its diverse population.

He reiterated that the success of Nigeria in her journey to Nationhood in the last 63 years, far outweighs its failures.

The Senate Spokesperson however said the nation needs to get the correct answer to the leadership question to accelerate the pace of its race in the journey to Nationhood.
