In a message that also acknowledged Northern youths for supporting President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s administration, she said the contributions of Nigerians from different backgrounds deserved equal recognition.

She maintained that building a united country required deliberate efforts to promote fairness, constructive dialogue and equal opportunities for all citizens.

“As National Director of Inter-Religious Affairs, Tinubu Writers, I strongly believe that our strength lies in unity, fairness, mutual respect and equal opportunities for all Nigerians, regardless of ethnicity, religion or region,” she said.

Abubakar noted that political differences should not become a barrier to peaceful relationships or create divisions among people working towards shared objectives.

She called on political leaders and stakeholders to embrace inclusive approaches that allow citizens to participate in national development without feeling marginalised.

The director also acknowledged the efforts of Northern youths and other supporters who have continued to contribute to the Tinubu administration’s political and development agenda.

She identified security, agriculture, education, healthcare, infrastructure and human capital development as important areas in the government’s priorities.

According to her, young people and grassroots supporters deserve appreciation for their participation in political mobilisation and public engagement.
