The Inter-Party Advisory Council, IPAC, has reminded the government of Nigeria that citizens’ welfare must remain paramount in all government policies and actions.

IPAC stated this in its Christmas message signed by Comrade Egbeola Wale Martins, its National Publicity Secretary.

The Council noted that the season provides an opportunity for sober reflection on the life and teachings of Jesus Christ, his message of salvation, love, peace, tolerance and goodwill toward humanity.

IPAC urged Christians to use this sacred period to renew their faith in God and recommit themselves to selfless service to the nation.

“Nigeria is currently passing through a challenging phase in its national life and this moment calls for collective prayers by all citizens for divine intervention, wisdom and guidance as we strive to build a strong, united, equitable, prosperous and just democratic society,” the statement said.

The Council further called on the Federal Government to heed the yearnings and aspirations of Nigerians and take urgent steps to alleviate the prevailing hardships confronting citizens, in line with Section 14(2)(b) of the 1999 Constitution (as amended), which states that the security and welfare of the people shall be the primary purpose of government.

“At this critical time, Nigerians desire and deserve tangible dividends of democracy. The welfare of citizens must therefore remain paramount in all government policies and actions, as sovereignty ultimately resides with the people.”

IPAC also urged the Federal Government “to urgently resolve the observed discrepancies between the gazetted new tax law and the version passed by the National Assembly before its implementation.”

The Council asked the government to promptly find a resolution to these issues and help douse tension in the polity and enhance public confidence.

“The credibility, clarity and acceptance of any law by citizens are essential to its effectiveness and contribution to national development,” the statement said.

Despite current challenges, IPAC said it remains optimistic about the future of Nigeria, adding “Together, with unity of purpose and patriotism, we can build the nation of our collective aspirations.”
