The actress took to her Instagram page and wrote, “It takes heart to be Nigerian. Nigeria is not you. You are Nigeria. Be the reason they speak good about us wherever you are.
“Happy Independence to you in particular. 💋 ❤️ 🇳🇬.”
Leaders across the world and celebrities from different places have been wishing Nigeria well on Independence Day.
However, the nation had a lowkey celebration amid the high level of insecurity and ravaging coronavirus.
