The First Lady of Nigeria, Senator Oluremi Tinubu has dismissed reports that she is planning to organise a national prayer event.
Naija News understands that reports had emerged claiming that Remi Tinubu and the National Security Adviser (NSA), Nuhu Ribadu, would lead a national prayer event.
The report had drawn widespread condemnation, with many Nigerians questioning the rationale behind such event.
In a statement on Saturday, Remi Tinubu’s Senior Special Adviser on Media, Busola Kukoyi, said the First Lady is not organising a national prayer.
She stated that the news making rounds on some social media platforms are unfounded and misleading.
The statement read: “This is to clarify and inform the general public that the First Lady of Nigeria, Her Excellency, Senator Oluremi Tinubu, CON is not organizing a National Prayer.
“The news making rounds in some conventional and social media platforms are unfounded and misleading. Consequently, anyone who might have come across the purported news of the joint National Prayer for Nigeria should disregard it as false.
“Whilst the First Lady, a Christian and strong advocate of prayer and praying for Nigeria believes that prayer is an act that must be done willingly, conscientiously and correctly. She also believes that praying for Nigeria is the responsibility of every Nigerian, irrespective of religious belief, political affiliation, tribe or tongue.
“Members of the public are advised to verify the authenticity of any news or event involving the First Lady of Nigeria or her Office through Official channels.
Kindly be advised accordingly.”
