Buhari faces maiden media quiz Wednesday

President Buhari

President Muhammadu Buhari will be quizzed by a panel of journalists on Wednesday.

Styled the Presidential Media Chat, it is the first to be held since Buhari took over at the end of May.

The tradition started in 1999 during the Olusegun Obasanjo years and has been sustained since then.

The programme will be broadcast live on the network services of the Nigerian Television Authority (NTA) and the Federal Radio Corporation of Nigeria (FRCN).

Expectedly, President Buhari will answer questions on a broad range of current national issues.

The programme will start at 1900 hours.

Other television and radio stations in the country are also expected to hook-up to NTA and FRCN to relay the programme to their viewers and listeners.
