      Senate President Bukola Saraki post this photo above today and captioned it few minutes ago ''Since the dawn of our democracy on 29 May 1999, we have much to be thankful for as a nation.
Everyday, we strive to deliver greater dividends of democracy to the citizenry by steadily improving the economy and fulfilling the aspiration of our people.
Today, uppermost in the minds of Nigerians is the question of security, in many parts of the country. We must immediately find solutions to the security issues and ensure that we return to the regime of peace, safety of lives and property in all parts of our country. These are significant challenges we face, but with our current combined efforts, I believe that we will bring greater development to the country.
We cannot be celebrating Democracy Day without canvassing for caution on some recent negative developments in our polity, particularly as we prepare for next year's general elections.
These include abuse of office in a manner that suggests persecution and oppression of perceived enemies, stifling of free expression, undermining of democratic institutions, and impunity on the part of certain individuals who behave as though they are above the laws of the land.
History will not be fair to us if we allow our complacency to jeopardize democracy. We must all be able to speak out with strong voices on issues that constitute a danger to democracy.I would like us all to remember that Democracy is not just about elections. It also involves the rule of law, following due process, respecting and nurturing institutions. It is also unity of purpose while being accountable when we are in positions of authority. I will continue to advocate building up of our institutions, while upholding ethics and values.Above all, we must work for greater and better understanding among all Nigerians, notwithstanding ethnicity, language, religion or gender. We must avoid making and circulating hate speech which can further accentuate our fault lines and set one section of the country against the other. Rather, we should all embrace tolerance and the need to be our brother's keeper.We all have a lot to gain from a united and stronger Nigeria than having a nation embedded in conflict.Let us all focus on the things that bring us together, Happy Democracy Day''.

  SSANU, NASU threaten strike over withheld salaries The Joint Action Committee of the Senior Staff Association of Nigerian Universities and the Non-Academic Staff Union of Educational and Associated Institutions have threatened to disrupt industrial peace in universities should the government fail to release the withheld salaries of members. The salaries were seized by the administration of former President Muhammadu Buhari during their strike in 2022. The unions, in a joint letter signed on Friday by the President of SSANU, Muhammed Ibrahim and General Secretary of NASU, Peters Adeyemi, questioned the rationale with which the government released four months withheld salaries to members of the Academic Staff Union of Universities but failed to release the withheld salaries of non-academic staff. The unions noted that they would no longer be able to assure the government of industrial peace in universities should the amounts owed by the government are not released. Earlier, the unions
