First Lady urges Nigerian youths to aim higher, donates buses

First Lady Oluremi Tinubu has called on Nigerian youths to strive for greater accomplishments, emphasizing that they should not settle for minimal achievements. Speaking yesterday at the State House in Abuja, she received the leadership of the All Progressives Congress (APC) National Youth Wing.

“

God always knows our needs and that is what the young people do not know, they are always in a hurry. And I am teaching you how to learn contentment and not be beggarly.

Mrs. Tinubu encouraged the youths to embrace diligence in all aspects of their lives to progress. She stressed the importance of patience, integrity, and hard work as vital components for success. "God always knows our needs and that is what the young people do not know, they are always in a hurry. And I am teaching you how to learn contentment and not be beggarly," she stated.

The First Lady further advised the youths to adopt an "Eagle's mentality." She explained this by saying, "When the Eagle sees the storm, he laughs at it and sees how he can fly above it. That is what you should all do. You should always look for your own path and not because that person has it, I want it."

She commended the youth leaders for their unity and efforts in strengthening the party's grassroots political activities. Mrs. Tinubu urged them to enhance the party's reputation by effectively communicating the achievements of President Bola Tinubu's administration to Nigerians.

“

We are committed to the Renewed Hope Agenda, what you have done today is to enhance our capacity to be able to reach out not just for electoral mobilisation but to be able to improve the lives of Nigerians.

As a key arm of the ruling party tasked with promoting the "Renewed Hope Agenda," Mrs. Tinubu expects the youth wing members and leaders to demonstrate resilience and commitment. To facilitate their work, she presented nine buses to the APC National Youth Wing leaders for easier mobility during party functions and community service initiatives.

From this moment, we are now Mummy’s men for Asiwaju and we are going to set up structures to run campaigns in the 36 states of the federation. You have raised boys to men, we came here, many of us without vehicles but we are leaving with brand new buses. We are very grateful, Ma.
