Federal Government has unveiled the official theme for the 2025 Independence Anniversary.
Gatekeepers News reports that Segun Imohiosen, Director of Information & Public Relations in a statement on Wednesday 24th September, 2025, revealed that the theme is tagged “Nigeria @ 65: All Hands on Deck for a Greater Nation”.
According to the government, the theme for Nigeria at 65 underscores the need for unity, collaboration, and patriotism among the public sector, private sector, civil society, and the citizenry towards building a nation characterised by sustainable peace, prosperity, and progress.
Since achieving independence on October 1, 1960, the nation has successfully navigated difficulties and achieved notable advancements in diverse economic sectors. This necessitates collective efforts to solidify these gains and pursue loftier objectives, aiming to forge a powerful nation for all citizens.
It is expected that Government activities and programmes are to align with the official theme to ensure the message resonates in all areas of our collective national endeavours in the actualisation of the Renewed Hope Agenda.
As part of activities to mark the 65th Independence Anniversary, the Juma’at Prayer and the Inter-Denominational Church Service will be held on Friday, 26th September at 1 pm and Sunday, 28th September at 10 am respectively, as well as the World Press Conference on Monday, 29th September at 10 am.
