On Wednesday in Abuja, Oluremi Tinubu, the First Lady, encouraged female lawmakers in the 10th National Assembly to collaborate and maintain a willingness to learn while fulfilling their responsibilities over the next four years.
“As a former lawmaker, I advise you to please work together, irrespective of party affiliation, because the success of the nation depends on this. My advice is that, be teachable. Stay that way. Learn new things. Try it. You can’t say you are all-knowing,” Mrs Tinubu said when she received female senators and members of the House of Representatives at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.
The Special Adviser to the First Lady, Busola Kukoyi, disclosed this in a statement she signed on Wednesday titled, ‘The First Lady Oluremi Tinubu encourages female National Assembly members to remain committed to constituents.’
The statement quoted her as saying, “You are the women here at the National Assembly for the masses, and you should not take this for granted”.
“As a former lawmaker, I advise you to please work together, irrespective of party affiliation, because the success of the nation depends on this.”
She advised the female lawmakers not to sacrifice their femininity while carrying out their responsibilities.
