First Lady Oluremi Tinubu has urged Nigerians, particularly the youth, to be patient with the current administration as it works to enhance conditions across the country.
Speaking to journalists at the State House on Wednesday, she addressed the upcoming nationwide hunger protest organized by youth groups.
She said, “I urge the youth to exercise patience. We are not here to play; we are committed to our work, fully aware that our time here is temporary.”
“The government has been working day and night to make sure that our country is put back on its feet.
“The respect we have now as Nigerians in the international community is higher than what we had in the past.
“People now want to do business with Nigerians legitimately and that will create jobs. Therefore, our youths should try and engage themselves, be creative and do more,” she said
The first lady said Lagos state was yet to recover from the impact of #EndSars protest, and it saddened the hearts.
“When people beat drums for protest, they may not know the backlash and what will happen after.
“That is why we are appealing to the youths to restrain from the planned protest, give peace a chance and embrace dialogue,” she said
