Inaguaration Of Governor Ruaf Aregbesola As The Governor Of Osun State

Nov 27, 2010 - The conflagration of good governance predicated on progressive ideas and practical solutions to the problems of Nigeria and Nigerians has just began.

Those who are alive today to witness this event must take pains to record and remember the Friday the 26th and Saturday the 27th of November 2010 in their dairies and in their hearts. It is not the watershed day.

On the contrary, it is the day when first, the constance of truth prevailed over a mountain of lies.

Secondly, it marks the commencement of the development of what will be the best political party building process ever undertaken in Africa. A party built by the common and ordinary people, driven by their absolute faith in freedom, democracy, good governance and the rule of law that is symbolized by an independent and fearless judiciary.

Freedom and good governance is beginning to travel in Nigeria. It is on a journey to liberate our people. It is travelling in the vehicle of the Action Congress of Nigeria. It has found home in Lagos, Edo, Ekiti and Osun. It is coming your way.

Babatunde Raji Fashola, SAN
Governor of Lagos State
