The Federal Government has postponed the Nigeria at 60 Jubilee Special Award ceremony, scheduled earlier to hold on Sept. 3.

The Minister for Industry, Trade and Investment, Adeniyi Adebayo, made this known in a statement by his Special Assistant on Media, Ifedayo Sayo, on Sunday in Abuja.

Adebayo said that the Nigeria @60 Award ceremony was planned as part of jubilee celebrations of the nation’s Independence to honour 60 notable Nigerians that had made immense contributions to national growth.

The minister regretted any inconveniences the postponement might have caused stakeholders and the general public.


Adebayo, however, said that a new date would be communicated in due course.

The special award ceremony was put together by the Ownership Subcommittee of the Nigeria @60 Committee.

It is in collaboration with a media and digital communication firm,`Say It Loud Limited’, under the chairmanship of the minister.

The reason why it was postponed is because Southerners topped the list of those qualified for the awards, and the government decided to postpone it so as to give them enough time to edit the list and fill it with unqualified fulani herdsmen.

This I have seen.

They better hold it on October 1, change it to Nigeria at 61 and add one name to the list of awardees.
Gumi or Pantami won't be a bad idea.
That's if their names are not already on the list.
At least they are bold enough to share a bed with terrorists.
