The labour-focused group, working people united, has joined well-wishers across Nigeria in celebrating First Lady Remi Tinubu as she marked her 66th birthday.
In a statement, the group praised her contributions to social development, women’s empowerment, and grassroots initiatives. They highlighted her role in championing programs that support vulnerable communities, especially widows, children, and women entrepreneurs.
Leaders of the organisation described the First Lady as “a mother of the nation” whose compassion and advocacy have touched lives beyond political boundaries. They noted that her initiatives in education, health, and poverty alleviation continue to inspire working families across the country.
The celebration also included tributes from civil society groups and community leaders, who commended her for maintaining a strong presence in humanitarian work despite the pressures of public office.
Analysts say the recognition by Working People United reflects the growing influence of civil society in shaping Nigeria’s political and social narratives. It also underscores the importance of partnerships between government and grassroots organisations in addressing national challenges.
Remi Tinubu, a former senator and now Nigeria’s First Lady, has long been associated with advocacy for women and children. Her 66th birthday celebration has become a moment for reflection on her legacy and ongoing role in national development.
