My Husband Not A Magician, Says Oluremi Tinubu

The wife of the President, Senator Remi Tinubu, has encouraged Nigerians to have faith in her husband to fix the country.

Tinubu, who said her husband isn’t a magician, noted that her husband would work “brick-by-brick” to better the citizens.

She spoke at the inter-denominational church service held to commemorate the Independence Day celebration in Abuja on Sunday.

Tinubu added that her husband would not heap blame on past administrations, adding that he would work hard to transform the country.

She said, “We just came back from UNGA; it was successful for us as a nation. The world awaits Nigeria, and investors are teeming. We came back with good news. All we inherited are things that happened many years ago. We are not here to put the blame on any administration, but to fix what has been damaged.

“My husband is not a magician. He is going to work brick-by-brick, and I believe and have hope that you will have faith in this administration. The best is yet to come.”

The First Lady further appealed to Nigerians to celebrate the unity that defines our diversity.

She said, “Nigerians must look beyond their current realities and embrace hope anew. If we do not have hope, how do we become part of this greatness that God has started in the nation? We find through the love of Christ a deeper message of hope, especially in the theme for this year’s celebration, “Christ in you, the hope of glory.

“Good governance can only be impactful if we all follow the example of Jesus Christ, our Lord, who embodied the fruit of the spirit, including love, joy, peace, long suffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance and forgiveness.”
