The Federal Government under President Bola Tinubu has declared Wednesday, June 12, a public holiday to commemorate this year’s Democracy Day.
The announcement was made by the Minister of Interior, Olubunmi Tunji-Ojo, in a statement released on Tuesday and seen by 9News Nigeria.
In the statement, Tunji-Ojo urged Nigerians to reflect on the efforts of the country’s founding fathers and work towards a united, peaceful, and indivisible Nigeria. He also encouraged Nigerians to remain committed to democratic governance and appreciate the progress made so far.
According to the statement, President Bola Tinubu is dedicated to implementing positive reforms to boost the nation’s economy and enhance security.
