This was further confirmed on Tuesday by the Special Adviser to the President on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, who stated that President Tinubu’s speech at the joint sitting would highlight the achievements of his administration and reflect on Nigeria’s democratic progress since the military handed over power in 1999.

Contradictorily, the Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, Ajuri Ngelale, in a separate statement on Tuesday, denied reports that President Tinubu would address a joint session of the National Assembly on Wednesday, stating that the Office of the President was not involved in planning the event.

The conflicting statements have left the public and political observers uncertain about whether President Tinubu will make an appearance at the joint sitting.
