President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has revealed that he inherited his resilience, determination, and discipline from his mother, Hajiya Abibatu Mogaji who passed away on June 15, 2013, at the age of 96.
The President said his mother was a determined and resilient woman, after watching the staging of a play titled, ‘Abibatu Mogaji: An Opera,’ in her Honor staged at the Conference Centre of Aso Rock presidential villa, Abuja.
Tinubu watched the play alongside his Vice-President, Sen. Kashim Shettima, Senate President Godswill Akpabio; the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Rep. Tajudeen Abbas, and other dignitaries.
President Tinubu also promised that his government would invest more in culture and arts to enhance the future of Nigerians.
He said:
“My first restaurant was the best.
My first toilet was the best.
My first bedroom was her back.
There is no way I could have come this FAR AND become this old without her care.”
