“Nigeria’s 63rd Independence: Low-Key Celebration, No World Leaders Invited”

By Milcah Tanimu

The Federal Government of Nigeria has declared that no world leaders have been invited to the country’s 63rd independence anniversary celebration scheduled for October 1. This decision aligns with the government’s choice to hold a low-key celebration in light of current economic challenges.

The Secretary to the Government of the Federation, George Akume, made this announcement during a press conference in Abuja. He emphasized that the low-key celebration does not reflect the country’s performance but is a response to economic difficulties faced both nationally and by individuals.

Akume also highlighted the importance of unity and prosperity in Nigeria, emphasizing the government’s commitment to these principles. He acknowledged the economic challenges faced by Nigerians and stated that the government is working to provide palliatives and address concerns for the well-being of workers.

The celebration will include various events such as an anniversary symposium/public lecture, a lecture, Juma’at Prayer, a presidential broadcast, an inter-denominational church service, and a military parade.

The theme of the anniversary is “Nigeria @ 63, Renewed Hope for Unity & Prosperity.” The government encourages media professionals and patriots to support this administration and publicize the activities lined up for Nigeria’s 63rd Independence anniversary.

Please note that no world leaders will be in attendance at the event, reflecting the government’s focus on a low-key celebration.
