Senator Oluremi Tinubu has urged Nigerians not to hold her husband, President Bola Tinubu, responsible for the current economic hardships. Speaking at the Ooni of Ife’s palace, she emphasized that their administration is still young and is actively working to address the economy.
She acknowledged the challenges following the removal of fuel subsidies, stating that while the situation is difficult, they believe Nigeria will improve in the coming years with support and prayers. Senator Tinubu described her husband as not greedy and expressed gratitude for their position, asserting a commitment to not disappoint the country as they strive for a better future.
She said, “We are just two years into our administration, we are not the cause of the current situation, we are trying to fix it and secure the future.
“We know that subsidy has been removed but with God on our side in the next two years Nigeria will be greater than this. Those who attempted removing subsidy before could not see it through. But with your prayers in the next two years, we will build a nation for the future.”
“We give glory to God for our status, myself and my husband, we are not greedy but we thank God for what God has done for us. It is not common for rich people to get to this seat but I am grateful to God, we can not disappoint Nigeria and with the help of God, we are getting to the promised land in no distant time,” she said.
