Today, we honour the legacy of June 12 — a day that echoes the voices of ordinary citizens who stood for justice, truth, and the power of the people. It was a day that proved democracy is not a gift from the powerful, but a demand from the hopeful.
To the youth of Nigeria, the torch is now in your hands. You are the heartbeat of our nation’s future, but more than that, you are the pulse of the present. Every bold idea, every honest word, every act of courage you make today shapes the Nigeria we all dream of.
As proud alumni of Imesi-Ile High School, Set 2006, we offer you these words:
Stay vigilant and informed. Your voice, your vote, your values, they matter.
Refuse to settle. Challenge systems that stifle progress, and be part of those that uplift.
Be the leadership you long for. Whether in your classroom, your community, or your country, let integrity and action define you.
We believe in you. The fire of change lives in your hands, your minds, your choices.
This Democracy Day, may you walk in courage and carry the spirit of June 12 forward, not just in protest, but in purpose.
In solidarity and hope,
Imesi-Ile High School Alumni, Set 2006
