President Muhammadu Buhari will make a national broadcast to Nigerians on Thursday (today) at 7 am. This address is expected to be about the new Naira policy and security situation in the country and the progress that has been made so far. It will also likely include plans for how the country will hold peaceful elections in the coming weeks.
This was made known in a press release late Wednesday, made available to the press, by the Special Adviser to the President on Media & Publicity, Femi Adesina.
The statement said, “Television, radio stations, and other electronic media outlets are enjoined to hook up to the network services of the Nigerian Television Authority and Radio Nigeria for the broadcast.”
The reason for the broadcast or what would be addressed by the president was, however, not stated.
