Nigeria’s first lady Remi Tinubu says she wants to leave the presidential villa, Aso Rock, in 2031 and return to a Nigeria she can enjoy in her seventies. She made the remarks at the inauguration of the Abuja headquarters of the PBAT Door-to-Door Movement, a grassroots campaign group that supports President Bola Tinubu’s re-election in 2027.
Tinubu said she hopes for improvements that would make life easier, including better travel opportunities, and pointed to “changes” she said are happening at Nigerian airports. She also expressed confidence in progress and said those who do not recognise changes may need “Bola Tinubu eyeglasses.” She later commissioned the movement’s Abuja headquarters and signalled support for the APC and the movement’s convener, Government Ekpemupolo, also known as Tompolo.
Across the outlets, the core message and timeline—leaving Aso Rock in 2031—are consistent. The main differences are that Nigerian Eye includes additional details about airport changes and the “eyeglasses” remark, while Vanguard and Legit.ng focus more narrowly on the quoted pledge and her backing of the 2027 re-election.
