The Oba of Lagos, Oba Rilwan Akiolu, has appealed to Nigerians to be patient with the government of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, stating that the President means well for the nation and is grassroots-focused.
The monarch made this statement during a visit by the First Lady, Senator Oluremi Tinubu, to his palace in Lagos.
Oba Akiolu emphasized the importance of prayer and patience, noting that “everything good needs prayers.”
He also encouraged the youth to be closer to God and learn to be self-sufficient, rather than relying on others for assistance.
The First Lady, accompanied by wives of South West Governors, National Assembly members, ministers, and service chiefs, thanked the Oba for his support and assured him that President Tinubu will do well for the country.
She also promised that the request for a special status for Lagos State will be brought to the attention of the National Assembly through Lagos representatives.
The visit ended with traditional blessings and prayers from the Oba of Lagos.
