‘Respected Woman’ — Trump Hails Nigeria’s First Lady Remi Tinubu at US Prayer Breakfast

 Washington, D.C., USA — Former U.S. President Donald Trump publicly acknowledged Nigeria’s First Lady, Remi Tinubu, during the annual National Prayer Breakfast held in Washington, D.C., describing her as a “very respected woman.”



The recognition came as Mrs. Tinubu attended the high-profile event, which gathers global leaders, diplomats, faith leaders, and public figures to promote dialogue and shared values.

Trump’s remarks, delivered from the podium, were seen as a gesture of respect and highlighted Remi Tinubu’s profile on the international stage. Observers noted that the acknowledgment further cements her visibility in diplomatic and social circles outside Nigeria.

First Lady Remi Tinubu, who has been active in humanitarian and social initiatives in Nigeria, received the recognition warmly, maintaining her composed presence throughout the event.

The National Prayer Breakfast has historically provided a platform for leaders to engage in non-partisan discussions and acknowledge contributions from prominent figures worldwide.

This interaction marks another milestone for Nigeria’s First Lady in international engagements, reflecting both her personal influence and Nigeria’s growing presence in global forums.
