President Bola Tinubu will not give a broadcast to the nation on Wednesday to celebrate his first anniversary as the leader of Nigeria.
The President would instead address a joint session of the National Assembly, according to a statement made by Bayo Onanuga, Special Adviser to the President on Information and Strategy, on Tuesday in Abuja.
Onanuga stated that the assembly has planned a programme to celebrate 25 years of the country’s democratic journey at both the executive and legislative levels.
According to the presidential adviser, Tinubu’s speech would focus on the accomplishments of his government and Nigeria’s democratic transition since 1999.
He also mentioned that Hon. Femi Gbajabiamila, the current chief of staff of President Tinubu, and former Senate President David Mark, the former speaker of the House of Representatives, would address the legislature.
He added that Gen. Abdulsalami Abubakar, the previous military ruler who transferred authority to civilian control in 1999, would also be scheduled to speak.
After the speeches, Onanuga announced that Tinubu would open the National Assembly Library and Resource Centre, which would now be called the Bola Ahmed Tinubu Building.
