President Bola Ahmed Tinubu on Saturday declared that he has a mission to unite Nigerians, even as he assured Christian Communities in Northern Nigeria of his administration’s commitment to ensuring fairness among all religions in the country.

” I have a mission to unite this country, ensure its prosperity, and we are making progress,” the President said.

President Tinubu gave the assurance during his meeting with some Christian leaders at the Headquarters of COCIN Church in Jos, Plateau State.

President Tinubu described the late Nana Lydia Yilwatda as a devoted mother during the funeral prayers.

“The history behind this church is rooted in faith with deep acceptance in the Lord and tradition. I have been to Jos before. When we were coming here, Governor Caleb Muftwang showed me one of the bungalows, the house of Ambassador Yahaya Kwande. During the SDP days, we met there to decide the fate of MKO Abiola.

” Today, I am grateful that I am alive and to God be the glory to be the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria and to come here to bid farewell to the mother of the community, and a humanitarian”.

The chief mourner and APC National Chairman, Professor Nantawe Yilwatda, said his mother was a hard-working woman who lived on medication for 47 years.

“I am here to thank God for her life. My mother worked for twenty-four hours despite her health condition, supporting us and providing humanitarian assistance.
