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.

SWAN: Team Nigeria's appalling performance at the Paris Olympics is unacceptable.

The performance of Team Nigeria in the 2024 Olympic Games has been characterized as significantly below expectations by the Sports Writers Association of Nigeria (SWAN). Through the Secretary-General of the Association, Amb. Ikenna Okonkwo, SWAN President Mr. Isaiah Benjamin issued a statement stating that Nigeria's failure to return from the recently concluded Olympics with a medal was unacceptable.

After the Games, SWAN questioned why there were so many claims of medal hauls that administered by the sports authorities despite their full knowledge that nothing, not even the amount of preparation necessary to ensure a podium finish, was in place. Nigerians were led to believe that ev...
