The Theme of this year’s anniversary is “Nigeria @ 65: All Hands on Deck for a Greater Nation.”
Other activities lined up for the 65th Independence celebrations includes a Juma’at prayer on Friday, September 26, followed by an inter-denominational church service on Sunday, September 28.
However, the Federal Government cancelled the parade earlier scheduled to celebrate the country’s 65th independence anniversary on October 1.
It said the cancellation is in no way a diminishment of the significance of this milestone anniversary.
