President Bola Ahmed Tinubu is set to make a nationwide broadcast today, Monday, July 31, 2023, at 7 pm. The announcement was made by presidential spokesman Dele Alake in a statement on Monday morning. Television, radio stations, and other electronic media outlets are urged to tune in to the network services of the Nigerian Television Authority and Radio Nigeria for the broadcast.
The purpose of the broadcast remains unclear, but it comes at a time when the masses are facing nationwide hardship due to the removal of fuel subsidy. The removal of fuel subsidy has resulted in a significant increase in the price of petrol, causing a ripple effect on the prices of other goods and services.
As the nation awaits President Tinubu’s address, there is anticipation and concern about what message he will deliver and how it might address the pressing issues faced by the citizens amidst the current economic challenges. The broadcast is expected to shed light on the government’s plans and actions to alleviate the hardships being experienced by the people.
