President Bola Tinubu on Monday declared that no tribe, language, faith, or political party is greater than Nigeria.
Tinubu spoke during the launch of the late former President Muhammadu Buhari’s official biography “From Soldier to Statesman: The Legacy of Muhammadu Buhari” at the Presidential Villa in Abuja.
He called for unity and national progress in Nigeria, saying, “Nigeria is greater than any tribe, language, faith, or political party. This book reminds us that one life, lived with restraint and responsibility, can inspire a nation.
“May He bless Nigeria with unity, wisdom, and peace. Nigeria will endure, prevail, and prosper through our efforts and God’s grace.”
The president also commended his predecessor for his commitment to long-term national development.
“He understood the importance of long-term thinking, constructing bridges, restoring railways, building roads, modernising our airports, and renewing critical infrastructure, while prioritising maintenance and sustainability,” he said.
Tinubu commended Buhari for his dedication to social welfare, stressing that “He believed in targeted social investments to ensure that the state did not ignore the poor and vulnerable.”
