As we step into the year 2026, I extend my heartfelt New Year greetings and warm wishes to them great people of Lagos East Senatorial District, Lagos State, and indeed all Nigerians. The dawn of a new year offers us another opportunity for reflection, renewal and collective resolve as we journey toward progress and prosperity.
This year presents an opportunity to consolidate on the gains already recorded, deepen grassroots empowerment, and expand pathways for our vibrant, innovative and enterprising youth to thrive.
My commitment remains unwavering: to champion policies that promote economic stability, and inclusive growth, and to ensure that development touches every ward, every community and every household across Lagos East.
At the national level, encouraging signs of economic recovery are beginning to emerge, driven by far-reaching reforms aimed at stabilising our economy and laying the foundation for sustainable growth. In this regard, I urge us to continue to support the administration of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR, as it implements critical policies to strengthen the economy, improve infrastructure, expand opportunities and secure a more prosperous future for all Nigerians.
Our unity as a people remains our greatest strength. Regardless of differences in opinion, background or belief, we must continue to embrace dialogue, tolerance and mutual respect. Our diversity is not a weakness but a powerful asset that, when harnessed through cooperation, enables us to overcome challenges and build a more inclusive, just and forward-looking nation.
May the year 2026 bring peace, good health, progress and renewed hope to every home. Happy New Year.
Senator Mukhail Adetokunbo Abiru, FCA
Senator representing Lagos East Senatorial District
