Oluremi Tinubu Laments On The Infusion Of Politics Into Religion

The First Lady, Oluremi Tinubu, has charged religious leaders to lead appropriately by promoting discipline, love, and the fear of God among the faithful.

She made the call in Abuja on Thursday in her welcome remark to the Women Wing of the Christian Association of Nigeria (WOWICAN).

The women were led on the courtesy visit by the association’s national chairperson, Mrs Victoria Ihesiulor.

According to Mrs Tinubu, Christianity is a religion of love, meekness, and tolerance.

“Those virtues must be extended to everyone, regardless of their religion, faith, race, ethnicity, and social background. We must respect and love our neighbours as ourselves; we have missed a lot because we have brought a lot of politics into religion,” she said.

“Mothers should, rather, prepare the children for the glory to come. As for us, we are going to lead according to the fear of God. I am a Nigerian, and I don’t want to fly out of this nation. We must build it together,” she added.
