Every year since 1960, the Nigerian state has celebrated the anniversary of its independence from the British colonialists on 1 October. This year marks the 66th of such celebrations. The present government has planned a ceremony, however low-key, to commemorate the day on Thursday. The government has chosen the theme “From Reforms to Stability: Consolidating Nigeria’s Renewed Hope for Shared Prosperity”, conceivably to showcase some of the fruits of the president’s signature economic reforms on different aspects of the economy and national development.
