- Jonathan thanked the first lady for how far she has impacted the lives of Nigerian women
Former first lady, Dame Patience Jonathan, has pledged to support Senator Oluremi Tinubu, wife of the President to move the country forward, calling on other women to follow suit.
Mrs Jonathan gave the assurance on Wednesday, during a solidarity visit to the first lady at the presidential villa Abuja.
She thanked the first lady for how far she has impacted the lives of Nigerian women.
She said it was imperative for her, as a former president’s wife, to also support and encourage Mrs Tinubu on things that would move the nation forward.
Jonathan commended women groups for their support for President Bola Tinubu and his wife and pleaded that they maintain their support for the government to sustain the patriotic efforts.
“You are one of the women that I look forward to seeing, because you can make Nigerian women proud; I am here to encourage and support you because we are one country and our country must move forward.
“Twenty four hours, I am with you, call me anytime, any day, I will work with you for the country to move forward and to be better, because it is our country we have no other place to go.
