FIRST LADY OF NIGERIA, SENATOR OLUREMI TINUBU, CON, REFUTES ORGANISING NATIONAL PRAYER EVENT
The First Lady of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, Senator Oluyemi Tinubu, has refuted organising national prayer over the present economic hardship in the country.
This was disclosed in a statement released by Busola Kukoyi, the Senior Special Assistant to First Lady Tinubu, on media.
The statement reads “This is to clarify and inform the general public that the First Lady of Nigeria, Her Excellency, Senator Oluyemi Tinubu, CON is not organizing a National Prayer.
“The news making rounds in some conventional and social media platforms are unfounded and misleading. Consequently, anyone who might have come across the purported news of the joint National Prayer for Nigeria should disregard it as false.
“Whilst the First Lady, a Christian and strong advocate of prayer and praying for Nigeria believes that prayer is an act that must be done willingly, conscientiously and correctly, she also believes that praying for Nigeria is the responsibility of every Nigerian, irrespective of religious belief, political affiliation, tribe or tongue.
“Members of the public are advised to verify the authenticity of any news or event involving the First Lady of Nigeria or her Office through Official channels.
Kindly be advised accordingly.
“Thank you.”
Recall, few weeks ago, there was a report across media platforms alleging that the First Lady, Senator Remi Tinubu and National Security Adviser, Nuhu Ribadu, were planning for a national prayer over the current economic hardship in the country.
