Today is another October 1st, another day to commemorate Nigeria’s independence. 
This year, Nigeria’s 60th was however celebrated with somewhat dampened spirits.
With the country still grappling with the economic losses from a pandemic, state of insecurity and unemployment, it did appear Nigerians didn’t see much to celebrate.
Our stars however came through with the independence style, shining in their different array of green and white outfits. From Jemima Osunde to Erica, to Wathoni check out how your celebrities reeled in Nigeria’s 60th birthday.
Wathoni Anyasi
We are really grateful to Wathoni for styling to perfection this beautiful green gown.
She captioned the photos:
“As we celebrate Nigeria at 60 today let’s remember that change begins with us. Let’s not lose hope of the fact that one day and I pray it comes soon enough, the Nigerian system will one way or the other be on our side in terms of jobs, infrastructure, health and so on.”
“Meanwhile today let’s do something for our county 🏾. It can be as little as saying no to littering . It constantly feels like we are not where we should be at all but let’s appreciate the baby steps still. We can make this happen my people. Happy Independence Day Nigeria”
