The Senior Special Assistant, Media to the First Lady, Remi Tinubu, Busola Kukoyi, has, on behalf of her principal, refuted claims the president’s wife is organizing a national prayer event.
In a statement on Saturday, she revealed that the news making rounds in some conventional and social media platforms are unfounded and misleading.
She said: “Consequently, anyone who might have come across the purported news of the joint national prayer for Nigeria should disregard it as false.
“Whilst the First Lady, a Christian and strong advocate of prayer and praying for Nigeria, believes that prayer is an act that must be done willingly, conscientiously and correctly, she also believes that praying for Nigeria is the responsibility of every Nigerian, irrespective of religious belief, political affiliation, tribe or tongue.
