‘Allah gives and takes power’: Tinubu reflects on leadership after Ka’abah visit

After performing Umrah in Saudi Arabia, Nigerian President Bola Tinubu said political power belongs to Allah, who can take it from one person and give it to another. He said he prayed at the Ka’abah for the wisdom and resilience to continue serving Nigerians, and thanked King Salman and Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman for allowing him to pray inside. Tinubu reaffirmed his commitment to Nigeria’s development, said the economy had emerged from a difficult period, and urged leaders to invest in young people’s future.
