The Senior Special Assistant on Media to the First Lady, Busola Kukoyi, has denied reports that Senator Oluremi Tinubu is organising a national prayer event.
In a statement issued on Saturday, Kukoyi dismissed the circulating claims as “unfounded and misleading.”
“Consequently, anyone who might have come across the purported news of the joint national prayer for Nigeria should disregard it as false,” she said.
Kukoyi clarified that while the First Lady is a Christian and a strong advocate for prayer, she believes prayer should be “done willingly, conscientiously and correctly” and that praying for Nigeria is a shared responsibility for all Nigerians, regardless of “religious belief, political affiliation, tribe or tongue.”
The statement urged the public to verify any information regarding the First Lady or her office through official channels.
