Mixed reactions greeted Folashade Tinubu-Ojo, the first daughter of President Bola Tinubu’s Independence Day speech.
Tinubu-Ojo, the Iyaloja-General of Lagos State, in a now-viral video on Monday, urged citizens to “keep the hope” alive for a better Nigeria, despite the challenges that abound in the country. She added that she believed “Nigeria would still work for every Nigerian.”
“Happy Independence celebration to every Nigerian, especially my beloved father, Mr. President, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR, and mother of the nation, my own mum, Senator Oluremi Tinubu, CON.
“The founding fathers, founding mothers of our great nation, Nigeria, we need to keep our hopes alive; the flames of hope must continue burning in us.
“Our hope is being renewed, and I’m very positive that this Nigeria will still work for every Nigerian and all the beloved sons and daughters, the founding fathers, the founding mothers,” she said.
Tinubu-Ojo’s speech has since got many talking as netizens queried in what capacity she addressed Nigerians.

#PO_GrassRootM added, “This is Tinubu’s daughter speaking on Independence Day .The question is in what capacity is the daughter of Tinubu speaking? Power drunken family.”
#abbeyadenrele wrote, “Let’s await the speech of the first son too. And probably the first in-law speech will follow.”
#Alagbakenneth added, “Get hold of your family and keep their thirst for power supremacy far away from governance and the public domain.
Speak of domestic issues privately and leave governance to PBAT. SMH.”
While many berated Tinubu-Ojo for her Independence Day speech, some others supported her.
#nytade wrote, “Why is she under fire o? Isn’t she free to give her speech as a market women leader? Did she force anyone to tune in to her speech?”
#segunjohnsonno1 also wrote, “Don’t crucify PBAT’s daughter o! Madam Iyaloja general was just making fun, not giving a speech. She is happy, and it can equally happen to any person to feel happy seeing his or her parents atop the affairs of a country.”
