We are here to fix what has been damaged, says First Lady Remi Tinubu

 

 

First Lady Remi Tinubu says her husband is here to fix what has been damaged.

 

Mrs Tinubu said this on Sunday at an interdenominational church service to commemorate Nigeria’s 63rd Independence Anniversary in Abuja.

 

The first lady said President Bola Tinubu is working hard to fix the damaged part of the country he inherited.

 

She reminded the congregants that her husband is not a magician who will fix things with the wave of the wand.

 

“All we inherited are things that had happened many years ago; we are not here to put blame on any administration but to fix what has been damaged,” Mrs Tinubu explained.

 

“My husband is not a magician; he is going to work and I believe and hope that we will have peace in this country; the best is yet to come to us.”

 

She added:  “Good governance can only be impactful if the people 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.”

 

President Tinubu, during his maiden Independence Day speech, acknowledged that he inherited a country where things were very bad, describing the Central Bank of Nigeria as a den of malfeasance, vowing to expose the rot in the apex bank.
