He made the plea when the First Lady and wife of the president, Senator Oluremi Tinubu, paid him a visit at his Iga Idugaran palace in Lagos.

According to a statement issued on Tuesday by her spokesperson, Busola Kukoyi, the royal father observed that President Tinubu means well for the nation as he is a man who is grassroots-focused.

“All that I am saying and appealing is that we should pray for Nigeria and the president. We should be patient. Everything good needs prayers,” the statement quoted the president, the monarch, as saying

Oba of Lagos also admonished the youth to be closer to God, noting that Nigerian youth are mostly good and hardworking

“Though some youth are incurably lazy and are always waiting to be spoon-fed, teach them not to always wait for fish but learn how to fish themselves,” he said.

The statement explained that the visit by the First Lady was an opportunity for the monarch to restate his appeal for a special status for Lagos State as the former Federal Capital of Nigeria
