President Muhammadu Buhari will this morning make a nationwide broadcast as part of the programme of activities to mark Nigeria’s 55th Independence Anniversary.
“The broadcast will take place at 7am,” Special Adviser to the President (Media and Publicity) Femi Adesina said last night in Abuja.
Nigeria gained independence from British colonialists exactly 55 years ago on October 1, 1960.
