Nigeria@63–63 years ago our forefathers got independence for Nigeria. We need to get independence for Nigerians”–Aisha Yesufu
Popular Nigerian human rights activist and social media influencer, Aisha Yesufu has said despite Nigeria’s 63 years of independence from the British colonial government, Nigerians are yet to receive their independence.
Aisha Yesufu stated this in a prerecorded video shared on her official X (formerly Twitter) account on Sunday while wishing Nigerians a Happy Independence anniversary of their country.
According to her, it is time for present day Nigerians to fight for their own independence as the country’s fore fathers fought their fight, emerged victorious and jubilated over their triumph but with the passage of time, Nigerians are again, held bond by forces as though, during the days of colonialism. This time, it is not by foreigners but by fellow Nigerians, she alleges.
Yesufu said, “My fellow citizens, Happy Independence Day!
“63 years ago, our fore fathers were jubilating about the independence that they had gotten. The independence of Nigeria. It is time for us to fight for our own independence. The independence of Nigerians.
