President Bola Tinubu will today join fellow Muslims at the National Mosque in Abuja for a special prayer session for the nation ahead of his 73rd birthday tomorrow. He would also use the occasion to thank God for preserving and supporting him in the onerous task of piloting the country’s affairs.

A statement issued by his Special Adviser on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, noted that the President’s
choice of a prayer session reflects his dedication to the country’s spiritual and moral well-being and his commitment to seeking divine guidance, insight, and strength in leadership.

“He believes collective prayer is a powerful tool for guiding the nation towards progress and harmony,” it added.

The Presidency invited the public to join the session in spirit by offering prayers at their places of worship or wherever they may be, reinforcing a nationwide commitment to unity and shared destiny.

He expressed profound gratitude to Nigerians for their unwavering support and goodwill, as his administration “works tirelessly to advance economic reforms, strengthen national security, and expand opportunities for all citizens.”

The President further reaffirmed his commitment to consolidating democratic gains, fostering economic recovery, and promoting national cohesion. He also encouraged citizens to remain steadfast in believing in Nigeria’s destiny as a beacon of hope in Africa.
