Tinubu says Nigeria will overcome challenges and hostility

While in Mecca to perform Umrah, President Bola Tinubu said Nigeria would overcome its challenges and hostility through faith in God. He said he had prayed to Allah for the wisdom and resilience to continue serving Nigerians and was confident his prayer had been granted, as it had before the 2023 election. Tinubu thanked King Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud and Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman for allowing him and his delegation to pray inside the Kaaba. He reaffirmed his commitment to Nigeria’s development and to investing in the future of its young people.
