God appointed Asiwaju Bola Tinubu as Nigeria’s president, according to the Oba of Benin, Omo N’ Oba N’ Edo, Uku Akpolokpolo, and Ewuare II, who made this announcement on Sunday. He urged all Nigerians to support the government and live in peace.
The call was placed on Sunday night by the Oba of Benin during a courtesy call at Lagos House Marina with Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu.
The esteemed ruler stated that Tinubu’s win in the 2023 presidential election and his current position as Nigeria’s president demonstrate that God has appointed him to lead the nation and that all Nigerians must support him in order to realize their aspirations for a stronger Nigeria.
Oba N’Edo Uku Akpolokpolo Ewuare II, speaking during the visit, emphasized that Nigerians must live in harmony with one another in order to achieve sustained progress across the board in the country’s economy.
“Diversity is good for Nigeria, so our people should iron out their differences and live as a family in peace, unity, and harmony with one another,” states Oba N’Edo Uku Akpolokpolo Ewuare II.
“The election of Tinubu to the presidency of Nigeria was predetermined by God; we are all one, and I support quiet and tranquility. We have to coexist as one. We need to work out our differences and discover how to coexist as a single, large family.
In addition to congratulating Governor Sanwo-Olu on his reelection, the Oba of Benin praised the government for its enormous advancements in Lagos and urged him to keep pushing for even greater success during his second term in office.
Following the courtesy visit, the monarch, together with Sanwo-Olu, Deputy Governor Dr. Obafemi Hamzat, and other cabinet members, visited the J. Randle Centre for Yoruba Culture and History, Onikan. The monarch praised Sanwo-Olu’s dedication to promoting culture and tradition.
During the formal visit, the governor gave a speech in which he pledged that the state will always be open to people of all racial, religious, and political backgrounds.
Sanwo-Olu, who praised the Oba of Benin for setting himself apart from other traditional rulers, claimed that his upholding of culture and advocacy of traditional values had won him the utmost respect from people all across the nation.
As the governor greeted the Oba of Benin with President Tinubu’s greetings, he urged the traditional ruler to maintain his support for the current federal government in order to guarantee that the people of the country enjoy the benefits of democracy, which he pointed out are becoming more apparent in the third quarter of the year with an increase in GDP.
“On behalf of Mr. President, we want to thank you for your fatherly role and for your prayers and best wishes to the government, and I am sure he will not disappoint you.
“He will do everything possible to ensure that he delivers the real dividends of democracy that will help our country reduce poverty in the land, give us a new set of hope, and redefine social and economic development,” Sanwo-Olu said.
