The first lady made this known during a lively discussion with State House correspondents at Abuja’s Presidential Villa.
Mrs. Tinubu had urged Nigerians to refrain from publishing celebratory messages in newspapers, on television, or on the radio.
Instead, she requested donations to help with the construction of a cutting-edge National Library, which, in her opinion, serves as a beacon of knowledge and cultural preservation for upcoming generations.
She claimed that the response from individuals, businesses, and communities all over the country was overwhelming, with the fund quickly amassing more than $20 billion.
The First Lady emphasized that her efforts are motivated by a strong sense of duty and patriotism, not political ambition, when describing her intentions.
