Delivering a speech that blended appreciation with a passionate call for solidarity across political, cultural and religious lines, Mrs. Tinubu stressed that the nation’s future requires citizens to overcome divisions in the face of mounting global and domestic pressures.
“The future of our nation depends on our willingness to work together across cultural and religious differences for the good of all. For a house divided against itself cannot stand,” she stated.
The First Lady, honoured by the Leadership Newspaper board at the year’s outset, characterized the recognition as a collective achievement rather than an individual accolade.
