Former First Lady, Mrs. Patience Jonathan, has paid a courtesy visit to the First Lady, Mrs. Remi Tinubu, at the State House, Abuja.

The former president’s wife who visited on Wednesday, assured Nigerian women that the First Lady, Remi Tinubu will carry all women along and ensure a time of ‘Renewed Hope’.

She thanked the first lady for how far she has impacted the lives of Nigerian women.

News Agency of Nigeria reported that Jonathan commended women groups for their support for President Bola Tinubu and his wife and pleaded that they should maintain their support for the government to sustain the patriotic efforts.

“You are one of the women that I look forward to because you can make Nigerian women proud; I am here to encourage and support you because we are one country and our country must move forward. Twenty-four hours, I am with you, call me anytime, any day, and I will work with you for the country to move forward and to be better because it is our country we have no other place to go.

When we talk about the presidency, we have come and left, it is your turn, we must support you to achieve what you are here for like we have achieved so that Nigeria will move forward. I use this opportunity to plead to the women of this country to support this government; she carried us along when she was a governor’s wife, now that she is a first lady, the sky is her limit.”

Earlier, the first lady had commended Jonathan for her support and advice.

“We thank God that she is here on a solidarity visit and for us to talk about how to move the nation forward. I appreciate her visit, her support, and all the tips she is always giving,’’ the first lady said.
