· Says result of her husband's programmes are beginning to show

Wife of the president, Senator Oluremi Tinubu, has declared that the task of getting Nigeria back on track is a collective responsibility.

Speaking at the weekend at an Iftar she hosted at State House, Abuja, the first lady expressed optimism that the country will be greater.

She stated, "Mr. President will do all it takes to make the nation better, that even when we leave here, we will go back to a better Nigeria.

"We all have tasks to do to get this nation back on track."

Mrs Tinubu noted that the various programmes being implemented by the president were on track, and the results were beginning to show.

Earlier in her remarks, the wife of the vice president, Nana Shettima, urged women to be one another's keeper. She pointed out that governance was a collective responsibility and urged women to remember the country in their prayers, especially in these last 10 days of Ramadan.

On her part, the guest lecturer, Professor Rafatu Abdul'Hammed of the University of Abuja, advised women not to forget all they learnt during the Ramadan, saying they should continue in that line.

According to her, living in love, piety, humility and tolerance will enhance the lives of Nigerians.

Prayers were thereafter offered for the country, President Bola Tinubu, and the world.

Those that attended the Iftar included former first ladies, female justices, wives of governors, female ministers, wives of ministers, and wives of service chiefs.
