Nigeria’s First Lady, Oluremi Tinubu, has sparked controversy by inviting senators to a dinner at the Presidential Villa, Aso Rock, amidst rising banditry and insecurity in the northern states. The dinner, scheduled for Friday, November 28, 2025, is intended as an interactive session to discuss national progress.
Senate President Godswill Akpabio announced the invitation, likening it to “a mother inviting her children” to the gathering. However, many Nigerians are questioning the timing, given the country’s current struggles with insecurity and economic hardship.
The invitation has sparked debate, with some seeing it as an opportunity for informal dialogue and collaboration, while others view it as insensitive and out of touch with the nation’s challenges. The dinner is expected to proceed as planned, with senators and the First Lady’s office aiming to discuss national initiatives and priorities.
