Speaking with journalists at the 2024 Mawlid Nabiyy of the Lagos state chapter of Aljamahatul Qadiriyyah Islamic Movement, Tinubu-Ojo said the world was experiencing an economic downturn.
The event also featured prayers for the nation, with various portions of the Glorious Qur’an recited to seek guidance for Nigerian leaders and the best for the country, Daily Trust reported.
However, the president’s daughter, who is also the Iyaloja General of Lagos, urged Nigerians to have patience and keep hope alive, The Cable reported.
“My message to all Nigerians is to please exercise a little more patience. Everything will be alright; it’s just a matter of time.
“We need to keep our hope alive. There is an economic downturn all over the world, and not in Nigeria alone. But we pray Allah will see us through,” she stated.
Seyi Tinubu speaks amid Nigeria's economic turmoil
Folashade made this appeal after her brother, Seyi, provoked a chorus of condemnation on Monday, urging Nigerians to be patient with the current administration.
Seyi insisted that Nigeria was in great hands, and he had faith in his father’s ability to steer the ship of the nation meritoriously.
Commenting on Nigeria's current challenges, Seyi said the present generation “will yield the fruits of this hardship,” adding that he "stands with" his father, President Tinubu.
Shortly after Seyi Tinubu’s message on endurance was posted online, Nigerians were quick to bring out a photo of the president’s son rocking an expensive Richard Mille wristwatch.
