Sen. Oluremi Tinubu, the wife of the presidential candidate
of APC, said she will give voice to the voiceless if she becomes the country’s
first lady in 2023.
She said this on Saturday in Abuja when she visited
Karon-Majigi Ward of Gwarimpa and Yar Goje Community of Abuja Municipal Area
Council to meet with widows, Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs), and people
with special needs.
Remi explained that the visit was not to campaign, but to
familiarise and give support to the less privileged and to let them know that
she felt their pains.
“I am here today because of the work ahead of us, you don’t
just jump into the waters without learning how to swim.
“This is like a familiarisation tour to every part of Abuja,
to know the people who have special needs and to see how we can ameliorate
their sufferings.
“Because in a situation like this, they are more like
voiceless, so we are here to see and assure them that they are not alone and
that we feel their pains.
“So at least, if God happens to get us to that exalted
position, we don’t just go there blindly without really understanding what is
in our communities and environs,” Remi Tinubu said.
She said she would embark on visits to other communities
ahead of the 2023 general elections to have first-hand information about what
was going on in local communities.
This, she added, was to enable her to know how she could
meet the needs of the people.
She noted that the President Muhammadu Buhari-led Federal
Government had done so well in spite of obvious challenges.
She added that if elected, the Tinubu-Shettima presidency
would leverage Buhari’s achievements to ensure a better living for all
Nigerians and the development of the country.
Those who attended the event with Remi Tinubu include Nana
Shettima, wife of Sen. Kashim Shettima, APC Vice-Presidential candidate, and
the party’s National Women Leader.
Tinubu who currently represents Lagos Central in the Senate,
distributed food items, including rice, maize, beans, cartons of Indomie
noodles, vegetable oil, and condiments to the less privileged in the
communities visited.
She also presented a cash gift to members of the communities
to share.
