Kaduna State Governor, Uba Sani, has described Nigeria’s First Lady, Senator Oluremi Tinubu, as the mother of the nation who is caring and compassionate.
The governor made this known in his remarks at the distribution of food items and palliatives for Christmas and New Year, Umaru Yar’adua Conference Centre, Kaduna.
Sani said the first lady’s life is one totally devoted to the service of humanity.
“As First Lady of Lagos State, she initiated many social intervention programmes to uplift the living conditions of the poor, weak, vulnerable and underserved,” he added.
The governor recalled that “In the 9th Senate, she sponsored many motions and bills aimed at empowering the less privileged.
“Her Excellency was my dear colleague in the 9th Senate. Like the Mother that she truly is, she took good care of us, her colleagues. We were always sure of receiving welfare packages from her during festive periods. Her generosity knows no bounds,” he recalled.
The governor pointed out that “As First Lady of Nigeria, she has not relented in her efforts at putting smiles on the faces of the underprivileged in our society.”
He noted that the distribution of palliatives ‘’Is also an affirmation of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s commitment to alleviating the pains of Nigerians.”
Sani described President Bola Tinubu as a listening President.
The governor said his administration runs “a pro – poor, people – centered administration.”
