President Bola Tinubu has rejoiced with the Roman Catholic Church on the emergence of Pope Leo XIV as the Bishop of Rome and the new leader of the church.
In a statement on Thursday 8,May 2025,presidential spokesman, Bayo Onanuga, said his principal also prayed for the successful tenure of the new Pope.
“The President felicitates the Conclave for electing the American Robert Francis Cardinal Prevost as the 267th Bishop of Rome.
President Tinubu rejoices with the leadership of and congregants of the Catholic Church in Nigeria on the historic election of the new Pontiff, whose message of faith and hope already resonates across the globe, with a reassurance from the scriptures of a more peaceful world,” the statement partly read.
Tinubu said Nigeria and the Holy See have shared values over many years.
He also acknowledged the rewarding partnership with the Catholic Church in peace building, education, healthcare, infrastructure, and, more recently, the promotion of technology in advancing human capacity and is confident that the election of Pope Leo XIV opens a new chapter in the history of the Catholic Church and the values of love, humanity and charity, particularly to the underprivileged, that it has consistently projected.
The President, therefore, prayed that the Almighty God will continuously shed his light of glory over the new leader of the Catholic Church and grant him good health and wisdom so that he can reach the world with the message of peace and love.
Investigator news reports that Robert Francis Prevost became Pope Leo XIV on Thursday after cardinals from around the globe chose him to be the first leader of the world’s 1.4 billion Catholics to hail from the United States.
Tens of thousands of well-wishers cheered as Leo, successor to the late Pope Francis, appeared on the balcony of St Peter’s Basilica to deliver the first address of his ministry.
“To all people, wherever they are, to all peoples, to the whole Earth, peace be with you,” a smiling Leo told the crowd.
“Help us, and each other, to build bridges through dialogue, through encounter, to come together as one people, always in peace.”
Leo’s speech drew warm applause, especially a section where the prelate — who spent many years in Peru — broke into Spanish, and also when he paid tribute to his popular predecessor Francis, who died last month.
“We still keep in our ears that weak, but always courageous, voice of Pope Francis blessing Rome,” he said, referring to the ailing Argentine’s Easter Sunday address, a day before his death.
“We must seek together how to be a missionary Church, a Church that builds bridges, which hold dialogues, which is always open,” he said.
……..As Fashola,Babalakin,Aregbesola grace the occasion
Emmanuel lkpeama
Former Governor of Lagos State,Mr. Babatunde Raji Fashola (SAN), has called on Muslims faithfuls to always allow their faith to manifest in actions,not just words so as to have positive impact in society
Fashola said this during the 30th year anniversary lecture of the Nasrul-Lahi-l-Fatih Society (NASFAT), held on Saturday 3rd,May 2025, at the Nigerian Institute of Medical Research, Yaba, Lagos with the theme “Faith, Social Justice, and Economic Empowerment.”
The Former minister who was the guest speaker at the event,said the theme “Faith, Social Justice, and Economic Empowerment is potentially transformative, especially as a time when faith is being used to disintegrate families, expel people into slavery and perpetrate crimes.
“We are hearing reports of faith being used to break families, to enslave people, and to commit crimes. This is why we must reset the agenda of what faith truly means,”
“Faith is not static. It should inspire renewal, pursuit of knowledge, and service to humanity and it should be a constant source of inspiration for seeking and advancing healthy knowledge.”he said.
He quoted the Holy Quran, describing it as “a light of light,” and stressed that true faith is not just about appearance or routine worship.
“Light is meant to illuminate, to challenge darkness, and to reveal truth,” he said. “Faith should reflect in our deeds, our thoughts, and our hearts. It is not righteousness to simply face a direction or chant words, but to give, to help the needy, and to keep promises.”
On social justice, my intervention here is that social justice is not optional, it is a divine compulsion. It is not a western idea. It is not something of convenience but it’s a divine conjunction. Therefore, we must focus on justice as a national ethic. Imagine if we all agreed that justice becomes our common ethic and that we will do everything in our powers to confront injustice, how great that would be?
“On economic empowerment, I start here by saying that a man cannot pray on an empty stomach and if he prays, it will be hard for him to concentrate. So, we must give our people a means to live with dignity. Nothing best captures the idea of social justice than for a man to wake up in the morning and go to his place of work as against I am going to bed.
“We have seen empowerment in the last few years but let us ask ourselves, have we really empowered? When we give tricycles and motorcycles, have we really empowered? Should we do more of that?
“We must understand that a society that empowers people to earn is a society that protect dignity. The real empowerment is in creating a sustainable source of income and not giving out tricycles and motorcycles. Empowerment should improve quality of lives and living. When we elect people in parliament and we started asking them to come and build a road and all, are we not the one introducing a breach of contract? Because it is the executive arm that should do all those things.
“One of the arguments I’ve made about constituency projects, is for federal lawmakers to limit constituency projects to federal responsibilities because there are state legislators who should also legislate for their small communities. Some of those projects were run in my Ministry and I remember one of them that were so impactful. So, I won’t stand here and say constituency projects are not impactful.”he submitted
In his welcome address, the President of NASFAT, Alhaji AbdulRauf AbdulWahid Ayodeji, stated that NAFSAT has continued to be a critical institute in the protection and advocacy of the local Muslim community across locations and to an extent the broader world Muslim population, stating that the organisation has remained committed to the values of Islam through its efforts in faith-building, justice, and economic empowerment.

………. Salutes And Celebrates Workers All Over Nigerians.
Emmanuel lkpeama.
As workers all over the world celebrates this year Worker’s day celebration,the Nasrul-Lahi-L-Faith Society (NAFSAT)has called on the government to prioritise the well-being of Nigerians, ensuring that all members of the workforce are treated fairly and compensated appropriately for their efforts.
In a congratulatory message to celebrate this year Worker’s day signed by the the President NAFSAT Alhaji Ayodeji AbdulWahid AbdulRauf, said that government must learn to recommit to building a society where all workers are granted the rights and opportunities they rightly deserve which includes implementing policies that guarantee a fair day’s pay for a fair day’s work, updating health and safety regulations, and collaborating with state and local leaders to increase access to paid sick and family leave.
He went further to state that it is also vital to protect and grow the middle class through apprenticeships and skills development, to strengthen retirement security, and to promote inclusive workplaces that welcome veterans, persons with disabilities, and all individuals regardless of gender or identity.
“Nigeria began marking Workers’ Day in the late 19th century, but it was officially recognised as a public holiday in 1980 by the People’s Redemption Party in Kano State. It became a national holiday on 1st May 1981, when industrial workers in cities across the country united to honour their contribution to the nation.”
” Thousands marched without pay, setting in motion a workers’ movement that continues to inspire generations. With clarity and persistence, these trade union pioneers—and those who followed their path—secured benefits we now consider fundamental: minimum wage, overtime pay, and collective bargaining rights. Their efforts paved the way for health insurance and retirement programmes, ensuring a lasting legacy that we must always strive to uphold.”
“When President Bola Ahmed Tinubu was sworn in in May 2023, Nigeria faced one of the most severe economic challenges in recent memory. Yet, through the resolve of our workforce—among the most hardworking in the world—we have begun laying a stronger foundation for economic stability.”
” Though many households still experience hardship, what is required now is empathetic, responsible political leadership that truly seeks to improve the lives of the people.”
“The government must prioritise the well-being of Nigerians, ensuring that all members of the workforce are treated fairly and compensated appropriately for their efforts. This includes implementing policies that guarantee a fair day’s pay for a fair day’s work, updating health and safety regulations, and collaborating with state and local leaders to increase access to paid sick and family leave.”
“It is also vital to protect and grow the middle class through apprenticeships and skills development, to strengthen retirement security, and to promote inclusive workplaces that welcome veterans, persons with disabilities, and all individuals regardless of gender or identity”
“We must continue working towards pay equity, support the right to unionise, and remove barriers that prevent people from succeeding simply because of who they are. In doing so, we move closer to a fair and globally competitive economy for all Nigerian workers”he said
While celebrating the grit and resilience of Nigerian workers and their families,he reminded the workers that employment is about more than a paycheque as it empowers them to care for their loved ones, save for the future, contribute to their communities, and nurture dreams for their children.
” While much remains to be done to ensure every worker enjoys dignity and respect, today we reaffirm our commitment to unity and meaningful change. With collective resolve, we can achieve new heights—for ourselves, our families, and future generations.”he stated
