Forget doing it in the PIC. A reasonably competent version will use all (or more) ROM than the chip has, and will be many weeks work.
Add a off the shelf chip to do this instead. Add something like the RC8650/8660.

You could create something crude, but it'll sound appalling.
There is PIC24 code here for this:

However the results are very poor.

Hi,

I've had very good results with Joe Grand's EMIC 2 text-to-speech module. It's an easy serial interface.
