The Speaker of the Lagos State House of Assembly, Mudashiru Obasa, has congratulated Nigeria’s First Lady, Sen. Oluremi Tinubu, on her 65th birthday, describing her as ‘mother of the nation,’ who has given so much for the betterment of humanity and Nigeria through her boundless philanthropy and political stewardship.
In a statement by his Chief Press Secretary, Mr Dave Agboola, Obasa acknowledged and appreciated Mrs Tinubu’s selfless and generous services and sacrifices since her reign as the First Lady of Lagos State, during which time her life-changing initiatives impacted many lives, especially the youth, women, and vulnerable people. He also commended her robust stewardship as a three-term Senator, and now as the First Lady of Nigeria.
He described Mrs Tinubu as “a pivotal force, inestimable cheerleader and foremost partner of President Bola Tinubu, in his mission to enthrone a more prosperous and progressive Nigeria through the Renewed Hope Agenda.”
According to Obasa, she is making life better for many Nigerians through the Renewed Hope Initiative, which aims to lift individuals out of poverty through education, empowerment and compassionate support, just as she did with the New Era Foundation established when she was the wife of Lagos State Governor.
Describing the Renewed Hope Initiative as very impactful, Obasa noted, “Her work is not just about policies; it’s about touching lives and bringing about real, tangible change in our society. Her commitment to the welfare of the Nigerian people is unparalleled.”
He added that the Renewed Hope Initiative had transcended its local beginnings, blossling into a nationwide movement that addresses pressing issues and instills a renewed sense of hope.
“As we celebrate Sen. Oluremi Tinubu’s contributions to nation-building, we look forward to the future she is helping to create, one marked by progress, prosperity and unity.
“History will be kind to her for her steadfast dedication and unparalleled passion for the welfare of the Nigerian people, and for the empathy, grace and resilience with which she does them,” he concluded.
