Today, I stand proud to celebrate the strength, vision, and courage of men—the force without which there would be no Abuja as we know it. This city, our nation’s capital, is a testament to the resilience, tenacity, and dedication of men who have contributed to its foundation and progress. From the pioneering leaders who laid its groundwork to the everyday heroes who keep it thriving, Abuja’s story is a testament to the power of strong and true men.
Now more than ever, I call upon those men—those who lead not just with authority but with wisdom and integrity, those who protect not just with power but with honor, those who preserve and restore with a commitment to justice and fairness. True leadership is not about titles but about service, sacrifice, and a relentless pursuit of the greater good.
In these times of challenge and uncertainty, let the men of Abuja stand as pillars of strength, guiding our city with resolve. Let them be the defenders of our values, the protectors of our families, and the advocates for a better future. I believe in the power of men who are rooted in purpose, driven by a sense of duty, and inspired to build a legacy for generations to come.
Men who understand that true, sustainable development comes from the collaboration of both genders.
