Times Are Hard, But We Have To Make Something Out Of Life – Tinubu

Oluremi Tinubu

Wife of Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, All Progressives Congress National Leader and Senator of the Federal Republic of Nigeria Oluremi Tinubu, yesterday, said the difficult times the country was going through would soon end if everyone contributed towards making a difference.


Mrs Tinubu spoke in a keynote address at the Women of Vision International Conference organised by the Christian Pentecostal Mission (CPM) International, with the theme Go! Make a difference.

“The theme is very apt at this point in time in our nation Nigeria. There is no better time for such charge than now. These are indeed trying times, with the present economic atmosphere which is not only in our nation but quite global,” the senator, represented by her aide, Mr Agboghoroma Emiko, said.

She urged the women to imitate the widow of Zarephat in the Holy Bible, who used her last meal to feed a man of God.
“This is for us to know that no matter what state we are in, we need to get up and make something out of life – it is a command to use whatever you have and allow God to turn it around to make you a blessing.

“This is the time to launch out in faith and go out there with whatever we have because there is no one God created empty. My advice is for us to take what we have, launch into the deep in faith and go make a difference,” she said.

CPM’s National/International Coordinator Rev. Mercy Ezekiel urged the women to put Christ first in their lives. “Without Jesus you cannot make it in life,” she said. According to her, women of faith should see themselves as “unstoppable moving trains”.
