Nigeria’s 54th Independence Day
celebration was low key in Benin, the Edo State Capital. It was devoid of usual fun fare;
Match past and other activities did not hold at
Samuel Ogbemudia Stadium to the shock of many.
Children and parents including Man O’ War,
policemen and other security agents who came to the stadium were disappointed
to meet the place empty.
Some bold children sauntered aimlessly around
the stadium perhaps wishing for a
miracle of sorts. The inaction by government did not deter others
from celebrating the day. Programmes were held in some churches in Benin
to mark the day.
Other
recreational centres like Oba Ovoramwen Square in Benin experienced high turnover
of patronage.
