Remi Tinubu Urges Greater Unity Among Nigerians

The First Lady of Nigeria, Senator Remi Tinubu, has called for greater unity among Nigerians.

She spoke during her homecoming to Warri Kingdom in Delta State, where she was received by the paramount ruler of the kingdom, the Olu of Warri Ogiame Atunwatse III.

This comes as the Delta State governor, Hon. Sheriff Oborevwori, described her, as a blessing to the nation. The governor, who spoke at the event, noted that the visit marked her third official trip to Delta state in two years.

The First Lady, whose mother hails from Warri in Delta State, was conferred with the traditional title of Utukpa-Oritse of Warri Kingdom, alias Ugbone, meaning the Light of God.

In a statement by her media aide, Busola Kokoyi, the First Lady specifically appealed to the people of the kingdom to come together, irrespective of their differences.

“The bible tells us in Psalm 133, verses 1 to 3, that it is pleasant to dwell together in unity, for that is where God commanded blessings”.

She assured the people who turned out in their numbers of continued support and commitment to the government, noting that the state governor had been doing a good job so far.

Senator Tinubu, once again, on behalf of the Renewed Hope Initiative RHI donated a sum of fifty million naira to 1000 women petty traders.

Earlier, the State Governor, Rt Hon Sheriff Oborevwori, explained that the First Lady, who had visited the state 3 times, twice when he was still in another political party and now when he had crossed over to APC, had shown tremendous love and sincerity in the care of Nigerians.

“She has a large heart, and those visits where she flagged off the women petty traders empowerment and the launch of the free to shine campaign encouraged me to make up my mind. May God continue to empower you to continue to put smiles on the faces of more Nigerians”.

The Olu of Warri, Ogiame Atunwatse III, in his remarks, urged everyone that by doing away with past hurts and grievances, there would be peace, progress and prosperity.

The monarch stated that the entire kingdom is proud of the First Lady of Nigeria.

“ We are proud of who you are, who you have become”.

“Our women know how to take very good care of their husbands. Thank you for being a perfect example of excellence.

On his part, Oborevwori, while addressing a vibrant crowd that gathered early in the morning, Oborevwori acknowledged Senator Tinubu’s impressive legacy during her tenure in the Senate, where she focused on impactful policy advocacy for the benefit of Nigerians.

Joining the Olu of Warri, HRM Ogiame Atuwatse III, in honoring the First Lady, he emphasized her humility and compassion, stating, “Nigerians are blessed to have a First Lady who genuinely cares for the poor and vulnerable in our communities.”

He reminisced about her previous engagements, including the flag-off of the Renewed Hope Initiative empowerment program in Asaba and the launch of the Free to Shine program aimed at enhancing healthcare delivery in the region.
