Nigeria’s First Lady, Oluremi Tinubu, has admonished the country’s youth to strive for greater accomplishments and not be satisfied with little achievements.
She stated this while receiving the leadership of the All Progressives Congress (APC) National Youth Wing at the State House, Abuja.
She urged them to embrace diligence in all aspects in order to go higher in life, adding that patience, integrity, and hard work are vital.

”God always knows our needs, and that is what the young people do not know; they are always in a hurry. And I am teaching you how to learn contentment and not be beggarly.
“You have to have the Eagles mentality. When the Eagle sees the storm, he laughs at it and sees how he can fly above it. That is what you should all do. You should always look for your own path and not because that person has it, I want it,” she advised.
Mrs Tinubu commended the Youth Leaders for working together in unity to strengthen the party’s political activities, especially at the grassroots.
She called on members of the youth wing of the All Progressives Congress to do their best in bringing greater respect and honour to the party in their engagement with Nigerians, especially on the achievements of the President Bola Tinubu administration.
The First Lady noted that as one of the arms of the governing party, with a mandate to carry the banner of the Renewed Hope Agenda of the current administration, its members and leaders must show resilience and deep commitment to a tomorrow built on hope.
She then presented nine buses to the leaders of the APC Youth Wing for easy movement during party activities and community services.
The APC National Youth Leader, Dayo Israel, thanked the First Lady for her generosity, stressing that the youth would keep promoting the party’s policies and agenda ahead of the 2027 elections and beyond.
He promised that the Youth Wing will keep supporting the Renewed Hope Agenda of President Bola Tinubu.
”We are committed to the Renewed Hope Arenda. What you have done today is to enhance our capacity to be able to reach out not just for electoral mobilisation but to be able to improve the lives of Nigerians,” he said.
The buses were handed over to the APC National Youth Leader, Dayo Israel; the APC Deputy National Youth Leader, Jamaludeen Kabir; and other Zonal Leaders, including the Federal Capital Territory.
