Democracy Day: In Abuja, Tinubu will reveal the largest painting portrait in the world.


To mark the nation's 25th anniversary of democracy, President Bola Tinubu will present the largest painting portrait on canvas in the world.


The president would reveal the artwork today at Eagles Square, Abuja, according to Opeyemi Alaba, the coordinator of the project, who spoke with Arise News on Wednesday morning.


He explained that the artwork was a message of optimism for Africans in general and Nigerians in particular.


Alaba, who declined to reveal the painting's theme, disclosed that 37 different painters, representing the 36 states and the Federal Capital Territory, contributed to its creation.


Additionally, he revealed that the portrait's inspiration came from images of the late US President Barack Obama and Elizabeth the Queen.

The President had earlier addressed the nation during the 2024 Democracy Day Address, covering a range of topics impacting the nation.


In his promise to make democracy the norm for Nigerians, Tinubu encouraged people to have hope for a better future and to not be afraid.


The President announced that the Federal Government and organized labor had finally come to an agreement on the much-discussed new minimum wage.


In addition, he disclosed that the new minimum wage agreement will shortly be formalized through the submission of an executive bill to the National Assembly.
