Explaining the event is Chairman of the Independence Anniversary Committee Mr William Misibini.

“The program should start at 6.30 am which is the arrival time for the warriors and the other members who will be involved in welcoming the guests and that would be followed by 6.35am followed by the arrival of members of the public and also followed by 7.00am with the arrival of the invited guests.”

The theme for this year’s anniversary is “Embracing Peace for Nation Building.”
