More quotes by Bola Tinubu

Over six decades ago, our founding fathers gave bravely of themselves to place Nigeria on the map as an independent nation.

The hallmark of a leader is to do what must be done when it should be done.

We lift high this torch so that it might shine on every household and in every heart that calls itself Nigerian.

The power of an idea, the power of the people proved more potent than all the guns and munitions, and the threats of the strongmen.

As citizens, we declare as one unified people devoted to one unified national cause, that as long as this world exists, Nigeria shall exist.
