Mrs Tinubu said the current administration is committed to providing sustainable development for Nigerians, saying the government will do all it takes to ensure that Nigerians are not disappointed.

The First Lady said the president was aware of the current challenges facing the country and working hard to provide sustainable solutions to the challenges.

She added: “This administration just spent less than 18 months, so, it is not the cause of the economic challenges on ground.

“We are trying all our efforts to ensure that the economy is stabilised and masses are living meaningful lives since the removal of fuel subsidy.”

Mrs Tinubu reassured the commitment of the administration to take the nation to its promised land.

On his part, Ooni acknowledged the visit of the First Lady to the ancient city of Ile-Ife and Tinubu’s administration’s efforts to ensure that Nigeria become the best country.
