The First Lady, Senator Oluremi Tinubu, has appealed to voters in the South-East to support the re-election of her husband, President Bola Tinubu, in the 2027 presidential election.
Mrs Tinubu said she wanted to enjoy a better Nigeria in her old age, adding that she and the President were committed to working for the development of the country.
The First Lady made the appeal on Wednesday in Owerri, the Imo State capital, during an official visit to the South-East for the empowerment of women.
“Make una vote for Mr President, we go work for una and Nigeria go better.
“I want to enjoy Nigeria at old age, so I will work for Nigeria, for my old age,” she said.
Mrs Tinubu said the empowerment programme was being implemented through the Office of the Senior Special Assistant to the President on Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
According to her, the programme would benefit 18,500 women across the country upon completion.
She said 500 women from each of the five South-East states would receive items including generators, industrial grinding machines, gas cylinders and ovens to support their businesses.
