 ‘I’ll turn off the mic’ — Remi Tinubu reins in Adeleke’s singing at Ooni’s anniversary First Lady Oluremi Tinubu cautioned Ademola Adeleke, the Osun state governor, for prolonged singing during his remarks at the 10th coronation anniversary celebration of Adeyeye Ogunwusi, the Ooni of Ife. The moment, captured in a now-viral video, occurred as the governor mounted the podium on Sunday to pay tribute to the monarch and to congratulate the Remi on her newly bestowed chieftaincy title, Yeye Asiwaju Gbogbo Ile Oodua. Rather than proceed immediately with his formal message, Adeleke, popularly known as the “Dancing Governor” for his spirited public appearances, burst into a short musical chant, drawing laughter from parts of the audience. Remi, who had moments earlier received her traditional title from the Ooni, walked towards the podium, gestured lightly to the governor, and whispered to him to proceed with his statement. “Go ahead,” she was heard saying, in an attempt to steer the ev...

 Speak truth to leaders, don’t insult govt, Remi Tinubu tells cleric


Nigeria’s First Lady, Senator Oluremi Tinubu on Monday admonished religious leaders to focus on praying and counselling governments at all levels instead of raining curses on them.


The president’s wife gave the warning at the opening ceremony of a four-day International Conference of the African Biblical Leadership Initiative scheduled to be held in Abuja.


 


The ABLI initiative themed ‘Value-based leadership model for Africa’ attracted several African and European leaders as well as global Christian leaders.


In her address, Tinubu, who was represented by the National Coordinator and Chief Executive Officer of New Partnership for Africa’s Development, Princess Gloria Akobundu, lamented there are numerous challenges plaguing today’s leadership, especially in Africa.


The First Lady, therefore, urged religious leaders to preach peace and follow in the footsteps of Christ by fervently praying for leaders in power instead of abusing them.


She said, “To our spiritual fathers, I urge you to build and foster peace and Development as well as to pray for the government. Let us not curse, insult and castigate the government. Rather, speak the truth to the leaders and conscience of our citizens.


 

“Let us not equate ourselves to God, nor take His place, knowing fully well that God can use anybody to achieve his purpose and fulfil His agenda here on earth. Africa is at a crossroads, facing numerous challenges that require effective leadership.


“As Christian leaders, we must embrace a value-based leadership model that reflects the teachings of our Lord Jesus Christ. This model must be built on justice, integrity, wisdom and social harmony.”


Earlier in his speech, President, Christian Association of Nigeria, Daniel Okoh, harped on the need for effective leadership.


Okoh also prayed for God to continue raising conscientious and compassionate leaders for African countries.


He said, “I want to emphasise that leadership is not merely a position of authority but a calling to serve integrity and purpose. The scripture reminds us that our thoughts and actions should align with higher principles of truth. In a continent rich in diversity and potential, we are presented with a unique opportunity to lead by example and dwell on the moral compass demanded by our faith.


“In these challenging times, the need for leaders who embody biblical values has never been more critical. We face numerous challenges, such as economic uncertainties, insecurity social injustices and conflicts that threaten our unity and progress.


‘Our leadership must be grounded in love and unity. As we strive to uplift our communities and nations, we must commit ourselves to the principles in the scripture, which is centred on what is noble and pure.”
