Adeniji made the charge in a post-Democracy Day statement issued in Abuja on Tuesday.
While commending the masses for their unwavering commitment to democracy, the director of The Asiwaju Group appealed to the president to continue upholding democratic values while extending a helping hand to the less privileged.
According to her, June 12 should serve as a reminder of Nigeria’s hard-fought journey towards a system of governance that empowers the people and provides a platform for their voices to be heard.
She said, “As we move forward, I implore President Tinubu to emulate the late Chief MKO Abiola by championing the cause of democracy and extending a helping hand to those in need. By prioritising the well-being of all Nigerians, especially the less privileged, we can truly build a just and prosperous nation.
“Democracy Day is a time for us to reflect on the significance of democracy in our nation and renew our commitment to upholding its principles. I commend the Nigerian people for their resilience and unwavering belief in the power of democracy.
She also acknowledged the efforts of numerous individuals who worked tirelessly to establish this democratic era and emphasised the importance of safeguarding and nurturing these hard-earned freedoms.
“The best is yet to come in this administration. We urge the president to continue his steadfast dedication to democratic ideals and the well-being of the Nigerian people.
She stated that President Tinubu should utilise his leadership abilities to connect with underprivileged citizens and ensure that they are not excluded from the country’s progress.
