Remi Tinubu: I didn’t close Aso Rock church

Sen. Oluremi Tinubu, the wife of President Bola Tinubu, has disclaimed the rumour making round on social media platforms that the Aso Villa Chapel has been closed.

This was contained in a statement issued by the Special Adviser on Media to the First Lady, Busola Kukoyi, on Monday.

The statement read: “Our attention has been drawn to a story on social media about the purported closure of the Aso Rock Chapel by the First Lady; we wish to state categorically that this is a fabrication and a false representation of the true situation.

“The First Lady at no time gave such directive that the chapel be shut nor asked for the keys to be handed over to her.

“Presently, there are weekly fellowship going on at the chapel including mid-week fellowship on Tuesdays.

“However, Mr President is yet to appoint a Chaplain for the chapel after the exit of the last Chaplain as he only reserves the right to appoint a chaplain.”
