On the occasion of Nigeria’s annual Democracy Day celebration, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu is set to deliver a nationwide address to the country at 7 a.m. this morning.
The presidential broadcast, which will be aired across television, radio, and other electronic media outlets, is expected to focus on the administration’s efforts to strengthen democratic institutions and processes in Nigeria.
President Tinubu, who was elected in 2023 on a platform of political reform and anti-corruption, is likely to highlight his government’s achievements over the past year, as well as outline his vision for the country’s democratic development in the years ahead.
The Democracy Day address comes at a critical juncture for Nigeria, as the country continues to grapple with ongoing security challenges, economic uncertainty, and calls for greater transparency and accountability in governance.
Nigerians across the country are anticipated to tune in to the president’s speech, which will be closely watched for any major policy announcements or strategic directions for the administration.
Television, radio, and other electronic media outlets have been directed by the Office of the President to carry the live broadcast of the Democracy Day address through the network services of the Nigerian Television Authority (NTA) and the Federal Radio Corporation of Nigeria (FRCN).
The news of the upcoming presidential address was communicated in a statement released yesterday by Chief Ajuri Ngelale, the Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity.
