Update: 2nd Term Inauguration Of President Buhari Will Take Its Full Course On June 12th - Minister Of Information, Lai Mohammed Speaking At A Press Conference Today, May 13th

President Buhari's inauguration for a second term on May 29th will be a low-key affair.

Minister of Information and Culture, Lai Mohammed announced this at a press conference in Abuja today Monday, May 13th.

According to Lai Mohammed, the decision to have a low-key inauguration for the President was taken at the meeting of the Federal Executive Council (FEC) on Wednesday, 8 May 2019.

He however stated that invitations have been sent to all world leaders to attend the ceremonies marking the observance of the Democracy Day on June 12.

Since the first observance of June 12 as Democracy Day falls into an election year, and as a measure to sustain June 12 as Democracy Day, the celebration of the inauguration and the advancement of democracy in the country will now take place on June 12. The country can ill-afford two major celebrations within a two-week interval'' he said

Details of the events slated for the two ceremonies will be unveiled at a world press conference slated for May 20th in Abuja
