Minister of Youth and Sports, Sunday Dare has described the Senator representing Lagos Central at the National Assembly, Oluremi Tinubu, as an exemplary woman and a pillar of strength to progressive politics in Nigeria.
Dare, in his goodwill message to Senator Tinubu on her 60th birthday, said the former First Lady of Lagos State is an achiever and role model who has consistently used her time and resources to better the lives of the downtrodden, motivate young people and inspire other women.
While recalling her time as the First Lady of Lagos State, the minister said the senator founded the New Era Foundation to promote literacy among secondary school students in the state through the Spelling Bee Competition. Through the initiative, according to Dare, thousands of students were motivated to take their education seriously while past winners of the competition through her scholarship scheme attained higher goals in life.
“Senator Tinubu remains a worthy source of inspiration to many young people in Lagos and across Nigeria. She used her positions to influence them for positive actions that will impact the society and better their lives. Through her Spelling Bee Competition and annual End of the Year event for children she helped many to discover God-given talents. The symbolism of the ‘One Day Governor’ Prize for the Spelling Bee Winner set a new standard in the mobilisation of the talent and creativity of young people,” the Minister said.
The minister added that Senator Tinubu as the wife of an outstanding political leader opened her heart and home to receive associates of her husband and played a perfect co-host to many people across the country regardless of their tribe, religion and political persuasion.
“She is a relentless supporter and pillar of strength to our leader, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu in all his principled struggles for a better and prosperous Nigeria that is built on fairness, social and economic justice. As an icon of progressive politics herself she continues to work at the National Assembly to give quality representation to the people of her Senatorial District and Nigerians in general. On the joyous occasion of her 60th birthday, it is noteworthy that Senator Tinubu is still unrelenting in her commitment to service. I wish her more strength, good health and abundance of God’s grace for the years ahead in service of our country and humanity,” the minister added.
