The governor, in a statement on Saturday by his Special Adviser on Media, Yinka Oyebode, noted that “Senator Tinubu has contributed immensely to nation building as First Lady of Lagos State, a three-term Senator and now as the Mother of the Nation.

“The wife of the President left worthy legacies behind through her New Era Foundation in Lagos State which gave empowerment to students, youths and women and gave them opportunities for fulfilment and to contribute to societal development,” the governor said.
