In her view the nation will be greater coupled with happy citizens once there is love, peace and harmony.
Senator Oluremi Tinubu noted that the various programs by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu are all on track, and the results are beginning to be evident.
“This is a very solemn time, the time that we are supposed to reflect and also ask God for the forgivenes where we have erred and do better.
“This time should not just end after 30-days fasting and prayers, we should take it into the way Nigeria is going to be at the horizon.
