Addressing traditional rulers and religious leaders during a Ramadan Iftar gathering at the State House in Abuja, Tinubu emphasized the pivotal role of citizens in shaping the destiny of the nation.
“The love of the nation is in your hands. Pray for our country. Educate our children. The sermons we preach to the members of our churches and mosques are important,” he emphasized.
Drawing on the wisdom of Yoruba tradition, Tinubu encouraged Nigerians to exercise patience and faith in the democratic process. “No matter how slippery the bottom of your child is, you must leave the beads there,” he remarked, urging citizens to preserve and cherish their country despite its challenges.
Highlighting the power of elections to effect change, Tinubu emphasized, “Leadership is meant for changes. Yes, this leader is bad, fine. Wait until the next election to change him, but do not condemn your country.”
In a passionate plea, Tinubu urged Nigerians not to curse Nigeria but to recognize its inherent beauty and potential. “This is a beautiful land,” he affirmed, rallying citizens to unite and work towards a brighter future.
Tinubu’s message resonates as a call to action, urging Nigerians to engage in constructive dialogue, civic participation, and peaceful democratic processes to usher in the change they desire. With unity, determination, and faith in Nigeria’s potential, the nation can overcome its challenges and thrive as a beacon of hope and progress in Africa.

A Federal High Court in Abuja has ordered the immediate and unconditional release of Islamic scholar Sani Abdulladir Zaria from the custody of security agencies.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶
Delivering judgment, Justice Peter Lifu held that the cleric’s detention by the Defence Intelligence Agency and the Department of State Services violated his fundamental rights as guaranteed by the Constitution.
The court ruled that the 75-year-old scholar was unlawfully held for over two months without trial, in breach of Sections 35 and 36 of the 1999 Constitution, which guarantee personal liberty and fair hearing.
Justice Lifu also imposed a ₦2 million fine on the Defence Intelligence Agency and the DSS, to be paid to the cleric as compensation for the unlawful detention.
In addition, the court ordered the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission and Jaiz Bank to each pay ₦1 million for freezing his bank account without a valid court order.
The judge further directed the security agencies involved to issue a public apology to the cleric for the violation of his rights, stressing that all institutions must operate strictly within the limits of the law.
The court criticised the Defence Intelligence Agency for failing to comply with earlier judicial directives, including its refusal to present the detainee in court when required.
Zaria was arrested in December 2025 over allegations of involvement in a plot to overthrow President Bola Ahmed Tinubu. Security agencies alleged he received ₦2 million from a suspect linked to the alleged plot, though he later agreed to forfeit the money.
However, the cleric denied any wrongdoing, insisting that the funds came from a follower and had no connection to any illegal activity.
The court also directed the Attorney General of the Federation to ensure full compliance with its ruling, warning that Nigeria, as a signatory to international human rights agreements, must avoid actions that amount to unlawful detention or victimisation.
