Greetings to all the members of the Nigerian International Communities, as we welcome this month of November 2006, we first like to greet all our brothers and sisters in the Islamic Faith Communities and wish them a very happy and prosperous Ed el Fitri, and more grace from the All Mighty as every one join in the celebration of the Ramadan festive period. Fasting unto to God, solemnity and discipline in reverence to the Creator can only be observed in admiration, respect to those who partake and as we join in the holiday season, all of us at ANAC would like to wish every one indeed a wonderful season of blessings and hope for our great nation Nigeria and more unity and contribution from the Nigerian International Community.
We enter into this month with much concern over the democratic developments in Nigeria as 2007 approaches. It is important that we stand independent and support the cause of justice, fairness and true democratic development in Nigeria, free of corruption, tribalism and nepotism. It is our intention to keep a constructive view on all developments. Its however pivotal that we keep in mind that the contribution of the Nigerian International Communities is extremely essential if Nigeria is to move forward into the desired era of economic and technological advancement.
