Today, as Nigeria celebrates 26th years of uninterrupted democratic governance, the Wolekanle Youth Vanguard joins millions of Nigerians in honoring the resilience of our people, the strength of our institutions, and the sacrifices made to uphold the values of freedom and justice. Democracy is more than a system of government — it is the expression of the people’s will, the pursuit of equity, and a shared commitment to progress.

Over the past two and a half decades, our nation has navigated both triumphs and trials. Yet, through every challenge, the indomitable spirit of Nigerians has remained courageous and determined, driven by a desire for a better future. This milestone is not just a celebration but a powerful reminder that the future of Nigeria lies in our hands. From leaders to citizens, from urban centers to rural communities, every voice, every vote, and every action counts.
A Special Message from Bashorun Akinwale Akinwole (Wolekanle)
“Keep the hope alive!” These words capture the soul of our democratic journey. As we mark 26th years of civilian rule, we must rekindle our hope and deepen our commitment to nation-building. Let us stand united in our quest for a Nigeria that works for all- just, prosperous, and peaceful.
Bashorun Akinwole Akinwale, fondly known as Wolekanle, remains a firm advocate of youth inclusion, grassroots development, and good governance. On this historic day, his message serves as a rallying call for every Nigerian to play an active role in shaping a brighter, more inclusive future.
Our Call to Action
as Wolekanle Youth Vanguard, we believe in the power of collective effort. As young Nigerians, we must not only celebrate democracy but also protect and strengthen it. Let us be bold, visionary, and proactive in building the Nigeria we all desire. We can do this by engaging in civic activities, promoting transparency and accountability, and advocating for policies that benefit our communities. Together, let’s continue the work of making our democracy stronger, our communities better, and our nation greater.
Happy Democracy Day, Nigeria! Long live the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
