Years ago, on October 1st, 1960, Nigeria became a free state after it got its independence from British colonisation. Every year since then on that date, Nigeria has marked the celebration with a national public holiday and other forms of celebration by the masses.
ration, NET TV’s StreetLove crew went to the streets to find out what mood of celebration is.
The crew also sort to find out if Nigerians were conversant with the history of the nation and so asked some citizens to say how many years of independence the country is celebrating as at today.
This was supposed to be ‘quick maths’ like the British comedian and rapper Big Shaq would say. But we got the most hilarious responses which make us conclude that Nigerians need to do better at knowing their history.
