Dear Subscriber,

Three scores and three!

As Nigeria approaches its 63rd birthday, we are reminded of a time almost seven decades ago when the nation broke free from colonial rule, heralding a momentous leap towards independence. This upcoming milestone fills our hearts with pride, and we join Nigerians around the world in celebrating this significant event.

The times are tough and uncertain, but we are tougher as a nation, and we will weather this storm of tumultuous challenges in due time. As they say, the finest gold is the one that passes through the hottest flames. So let’s hang in there. It’s not over yet.

In the latest edition of FDC’s Relaxnomiks, we time-travel to the early post-colonial era, paying heartfelt tributes to the tireless efforts of our past heroes. Their enduring legacy reminds us of the beauty that once graced our nation and inspires us to envision what we can achieve if we rise together like a phoenix from the ashes, embracing the rich tapestry of our diverse culture. We also spotlight books worth reading, meals worth eating, and Nigeria’s international shining stars.

As always, we have carefully curated the finest articles for your reading pleasure, designed to captivate your attention and ignite a sense of independence within you this holiday season.

Here’s to Nigeria at 63—a nation with a bright future ahead!

Enjoy your read.
