According to him, this is low for a country with high population. ” The Federal Government and tiers of the federation are concerned with how to make more revenue by blocking leakages,” he said. While reflecting on Nigeria’s years of existence, Shehu said that the country’s 63rd Independence Day Anniversary was a significant milestone. He added that it was time for Nigerians to look back on the progress made and the challenges confronting the nation since its independence. “ Nigeria gained independence from British colonial rule on Oct. 1, 1960. Since then, the country has made significant strides in various aspects of development, including politics, economy, culture, and more. It is a time to honour the sacrifices and contributions of those who fought for Nigeria’s independence and to appreciate the diverse cultures and traditions that make the country unique. It is also an opportunity to reaffirm our commitment to unity, peace, and progress as Nigeria continues its journey forward,” he said. (NAN) www.nannews.ng
