The African country celebrates 58 years of independence today
NIGERIA CELEBRATES 58 years of independence today (Oct 1) and for the most populous country in the African continent, the journey since self-rule was gained in 1960 has been turbulent.
Nigeria’s independence government was led by the Northern People’s Congress in alliance with the National Council of Nigerian Citizens (a largely Igbo party), with Sir Abubakar Tafawa Balewa as Prime Minister. In 1963, the country became a republic and Dr Nnamdi Azikiwe its fist (non- executive) President.
