Mr Akume said the plight of Nigerians at this moment is the reason for this year's reserved celebration.
Nigeria's independence anniversary celebration will be low-key, the Secretary to the Government of the Federation, George Akume, has said.
Mr Akume said this at the Inter-ministerial committee at the World Press Conference on Nigeria's 64th Independence Anniversary in Abuja on Thursday.
"The President of Nigeria, Bola Tinubu, has said it should be low-key," Mr Akume said, citing the plight of Nigerians at this moment, for the reserved celebration.
