As a nation, we have faced challenges in areas such as political, economic and social issues but have overcome them. An anniversary is not just a celebration of the past. It is a call for action for the future. We must therefore commit ourselves to build a nation where every citizen feels valued and empowered to contribute his quota to the goals and aspirations of the country’’.

The interview session kick-started with the SGF’s interview, where he urged Nigerians to celebrate the nation’s achievements for the past 65 years and to also repose confidence in their leaders.
