President Bola Tinubu will address the nation on Wednesday
at 7 am to commemorate Nigeria’s 65th Independence Day anniversary.
In a statement on Tuesday, Bayo Onanuga, special adviser to
the president on information and strategy, said all television, radio stations,
and other electronic media outlets should join the network services of the
Nigerian Television Authority (NTA) and the Federal Radio Corporation of
Nigeria (FRCN) for the broadcast.
This will be the third time Tinubu will address the nation
on Independence Day since May 29, 2023, when he assumed office.
The Independence Day speech by the president has become a
tradition to commemorate the October 1, 1960, independence from British rule.
During the nationwide broadcast, the president is expected
to discuss the state of the nation and highlight the policies of the
administration.
On Monday, the federal government announced the cancellation
of the parade earlier scheduled to celebrate the country’s 65th independence
anniversary on October 1.
The federal government had declared Wednesday as a public
holiday for the Independence Day celebration.
