Remi Tinubu Tells Nigerian Youths To Work Hard

First Lady Oluremi Tinubu has implored Nigerian youths to adopt a strong work ethic, emphasizing the adage that “there is no food for the lazy man.”

Speaking at the palace of the Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi, in Ile-Ife, Osun State, Mrs Tinubu urged the country’s younger generations to emulate the example of God, who worked tirelessly for six days and rested on the seventh.

The First Lady’s remarks came as she inaugurated a hostel and 2.7 kilometer road generously donated to Ọbafẹmi Awolọwọ University by the Ooni of Ife, who had named the road after her.

During her address at the palace, Mrs Tinubu also sought to encourage patience among Nigerians as the current administration strives to address the country’s economic challenges, which she stressed were not of their doing.

With these comments, the First Lady has called for a spirit of unity and cooperation as the country continues to navigate the complexities of economic recovery and sustainable development.

While acknowledging the difficulties faced by many Nigerians, Mrs Tinubu underscored the need for collective effort and resilience to ensure that the nation’s younger generations inherit a more prosperous and equitable society.

Her words serve as a powerful reminder that the path to a brighter future requires hard work, patience, and an unwavering commitment to the wellbeing of all citizens.

The inauguration of the hostel and road at Ọbafẹmi Awolọwọ University, both named after the First Lady, underscores the importance of investing in education and infrastructure in the quest for sustainable development.

By providing students with high-quality facilities and resources, the university can better equip them to contribute to Nigeria’s economic and social growth, ultimately helping to create a more prosperous and resilient nation.

Furthermore, the collaboration between the First Lady and the Ooni of Ife highlights the vital role that traditional institutions can play in supporting development initiatives.

As custodians of culture and history, traditional rulers are uniquely positioned to advocate for and support projects that align with the values and needs of their communities.

By working together, politicians and traditional leaders can harness their unique strengths to drive transformative change, inspiring a sense of unity and purpose among all citizens.
