In his message to mark Nigeria’s Democracy Day, the former Vice President also said””democracy, despite its limitations and challenges, remains the best form of government anywhere in the world..

According to him, the freedom to choose your leaders makes democracy fashionable, adding that any system that subverts the will of the people destroys the progress of the society.

Speaking on the current challenges facing the ordinary Nigerians, the former Vice President says no democratically elected government would intentionally hurt the voters that put it into office.

He explains that the APC administration remains committed to the welfare of Nigerians, and that the current challenges are temporary.

According to him, the 2016 budget is specifically targeted to address the basic needs of the ordinary Nigerians, explaining that the implementation of the budget would bring succour to Nigerians. He therefore urges Nigerians not to lose hope because of the current temporary challenges that they are going through.

The Turaki Adamawa says as an active participant in the democratic struggle in Nigeria and an ardent proponent of the rule of law, rather than the rule of man, he recognises the sacrifices of gallant Nigerians whose struggles brought us to the current stage.

He said ” as Nigerians celebrate democracy day, the memory of late Shehu Yar’Adua and MKO Abiola would resonate across the country, adding that the sacrifices of countless others who paid the supreme price for opposing dictatorship would also not be forgotten.

Alhaji Atiku Abubakar however maintained that,  no sane society would choose despotism over democracy because, under dictatorship, dissent is met with death or torture.
