According to the Special Adviser to the President on Information & Strategy, Mr Bayo Onanuga, Tinubu’s speech will dwell on the achievements of his administration and Nigeria’s democracy since the military ceded power in 1999.

Former Senate President, Senator David Mark, former Speaker of the House of Representatives and now Tinubu’s Chief of Staff, Mr Femi Gbajabiamila are all lined up to address the parliament.

“Also lined up to speak is the former military ruler, General Abdulsalami Abubakar, who handed over power to civilian administration in 1999.

“At the end of the speeches, President Tinubu will commission the National Assembly Library and  Resource Center, now to be known as Bola Ahmed Tinubu Building,” Onanuga said.
