Nigeria’s 64th Independence Anniversary celebration would be low-key, the Secretary to the Government of the Federation, George Akume, has said
Mr Akume said this at the Inter-ministerial committee at the World Press Conference on Nigeria’s 64th Independence Anniversary in Abuja on Thursday, themed ‘Reflection on the past, inspiring the future’.
“The President of Nigeria, Bola Tinubu, has said it should be low-key,” Mr Akume said, citing the plight of Nigerians at this moment, for the reserved celebration.
The continuous increase in transportation costs, caused by the Tinubu administration’s removal of the petrol subsidy and the devaluation of the naira, has led to high inflation and economic hardship in Nigeria.
The interventions by the federal and state governments to reduce the impact of the policies have yet to create a significant impact on the country’s large population.
