WIFE of Asiwaju Bola Tinubu and the Senator representing Lagos Central in the Senate, Oluremi Tinubu, on Wednesday, October 12, 2022, charged Nigerian women to begin mobilisation campaigns in offices while appreciating market women groups for campaigning for her husband ahead of the 2023 general elections.
This is even as she expressed confidence that the joint ticket duo of her husband and his running mate, Senator Kashim Shettima, will protect the interests of women and safeguard their rights once elected at the polls.
The former First Lady of Lagos State made the plea in a statement issued by her media handlers in Abuja on Wednesday, October 12, 2022.
The statement partly reads, “I urge you all to intensify efforts at mobilising women in your respective domains, workplaces, and markets and prepare to receive us in your states and zones as part of our campaign activities.
“I urge you to also work with other capable women who are not here with us today as members of the campaign team but have the energy, skills, network, resources, and commitment required to mobilise women for the upcoming elections.
“I want to specifically thank the countless women groups who have been up and doing even before Asiwaju’s victory at the primary election was certain. From our market women’s groups to our young women’s groups, to our inter-religious groups to those constituted by current and former female government officials, and other classifications too numerous to mention, I thank you all for your unflinching support and your unshakeable belief in the prospects of a Tinubu/Shettima presidency.”
