Senator Oluremi Tinubu, a Former Lagos First Lady and Wife of a national leader of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Bola Ahmed Tinubu on Thursday addressed Dr. Bukola Saraki as “DISTINGUISHED SENATE PRESIDENT,” at plenary session. A positive salutation which many were not expecting from her.
Senator Tinubu on Thursday spoke for the first time at the 8th Senate. This happened when she stood at Thursday’s plenary to speak for the first time at the eighth Senate.
The Tinubus are widely believed not to support the emergence of Saraki as senate president in June, and the defeat of Ahmed Lawan whom the APC hierarchy supported for the exalted position. During her swearing in into the eighth Senate, the former Lagos First Lady was reported to have refused to shake hands with Saraki who shook hands with the other senators sworn in along with her.
